Weekend Movie Review


We rented 4 movies this weekend.

No Country For Old Men ~ This scared the crap out of me but I loved it. The ending was not the typical Hollywood movie ending so I had to ponder it. Mr. Keys actually liked it which is a surprise because he is so picky.

High School Musical ~ Loved it! Reminded me of Grease and I thought it was cute.

National Treasure 2 Book of Secrets ~ So So- Pretty much a repeat of the first one.

PS I Love You ~ I am about 1/2 way through it. Haven't formed an opinion yet.

Gas Saving Alternatives


With the price of gas skyrocketing everyone is looking for alternatives. Horse and wagon is my top choice, unfortunately I own neither. Some of them are impractical for the area I live in which has hills. Skateboarding and roller skates conjure up images of broken limbs.
I have considered a moped but can't figure out where the groceries would fit although the guy on the bike with a 10 ton load looks like he has figured out this issue.
There is bus service in my town but I think the closest stop mean using my feet to get there.
I do use my feet quite a bit and walk my daughter up the hill to preschool 2 days a week. Making the track back and forth 2 times a day for pick up and drop off in the humidity really takes a lot out of me and I am not getting any younger.
Someday I wonder if we will go back to the horse and buggy- For trips to the grocery store I would look forward to it.
