Knee Deep in Grits: Feeling Good

Okay, I've slid far enough down the Muscato Must Read scale that it's time to post something and move myself up a bit.

Confession: I lost interest in keeping this thing current since the death last fall of my mother. But life goes on. I'm starting (with the help of a patient partner) to feel like myself again. And, looking for things that make me "feel good."

New toys certainly help. I broke down a couple of months ago and got myself an iPh*ne. Partially because my boss kept texting me and my old phone was woefully text-unfriendly. (Partially because I needed a new toy.) I take it everywhere and am loving certain apps--use them all the time. The partner and I get a kick out of certain others.

Going to the movies certainly helps. In that respect, our little city of Arts and Innovation is growing into its name. There's a new cinema in town and I have a love-hate relationship with it. Love the movies they show. Hate the too salty popcorn and butt-crunching seats. Hmm. I wonder what kind of hits I'll get from "butt-crunching."
