I rarely get sick...occasional cold, yes. But rarely do I come down with something that knocks me on my back... Well it has happened. I caught Strep Throat from my little sister and it sucks. I felt it coming on Sunday night..So first thing yesterday morning I was at the doctor. I'm now on a Z-pack and hoping to be back to work tomorrow, for one day of course, as I have taken New Year's Eve off for our annual trek to Cole's grandmother's house for sledding and games.
Yesterday after getting my prescription and fulfilling my bribe of doughnuts if they behaved to my two children, I rented about 6 movies and plopped myself down on the couch. I began with an older version of "Pride and Prejudice", it's two dvds. I LOVED it!! I've seen the newer version with Keira Knightley, but this one was 10 times better and I fell in love.
Then I watched "Dreamgirls". Loved that one too. I'm a sucker for music and I just thought it was a good show with lots of entertainment value.
Next I popped in "The Reader". OMG! That was off in the first 10 minutes. I guess it's a bit of an "artsy" movie and the director apparently thought art meant lots of nudity. Seriously, I couldn't handle seeing any more naked bums. Off it went.
In went "The Secret Life of the Bees". Great movie! Dakota Fanning did amazing as always. I love her. And Queen Latifah was great too! A great movie with a great story.
I'm horrible at movie reviews, I know. haha.
I ended the evening and began my morning reading a book borrowed from my fabulous neighbor, and I hope to finish it today, as I am out of movies. :)
I will post pics of Christmas in the near future...
