Watched the film YARA on Netflix, while eating Rice Mushroom Soup from Crockpot - Chocolate Drops - and Lastly a freezing cold Compari tomato

 This was an excellent film. A young teen is killed and we are looking for the killer.

True story. Only 40 mins till Scorsese film is on

It's now 8 33 pm, and the film begins at 9 pm. 

9 minus 8 33.

Did I take my PM Pills Twice? Won't kill me - or will it?

Since the 1970s, 2.9 billion birds have been lost in North America alone, or 29 percent of the total population. Birdlife International also released a study last month that stated one-in-five bird species in Europe is threatened or near threatened by extinction. The study also revealed that one-in-three bird species in Europe has declined in the past few decades, the Independent reports.

"Unfortunately, we are living through a global environmental crisis, and we now know that the diminishing connection between people and nature may be contributing to this," the study's first author Catriona Morrison, a biologist at the University of East Anglia, tells the Independent.

LATER TONIGHT SOMETHING WONDERFUL will be on PBS. Can't remember what.

I just refilled my pill box and took FRIDAY NIGHT'S PILLS.

Question: Did I take them twice?

Bernice Greenwold (née Begis) died April 21, 2020, from natural causes. 

She was 97. 

Bernice was born Aug. 8, 1922, to Lillian and David Begis in Cleveland. 

She graduated from Cleveland Heights High School and worked at 

Majestic Specialties, Inc., a women’s clothing company, where she met the love 

of her life, Harold James Greenwold.

During his World War II service in Guantanamo Bay, Harold wrote her,

 “If you want to get married when I’m on leave, get a ring.” 

The wedding was at her mother’s home on April 4, 1944. 

It was scheduled for 4 p.m., but the rabbi was late, so they married at 4:44.

Bernice had her first of six children on Christmas 1945 at the U.S. Marine base 

at Camp Lejeune, N.C. 

The family moved back to Cleveland Heights, where Harold worked 

as a general manger at Majestic, then to Shaker Heights. 

In 1966, they moved to Englewood Cliffs, N.J., and finally settled in 

Huntingdon Valley, Pa. On Earth Day, 1970, they opened 

The Now and Then Shop, a gift shop and general store in New Hope, Pa., 

where Bernice greeted customers with her sunny smile.

Bernice will be remembered for her compassion, generosity, and quick wit. 

She loved gardening, creative sewing projects, and volunteering for 

Meals on Wheels. She was a terrific cook and baker of legendary 

cookie assortments. Above all, her greatest joy was family. 

She lived to enjoy five generations and died peacefully at home, 

surrounded by daughters and grandchildren. At Bernice’s request, 

her body was donated to Humanity Gift Registry. The family welcomes 

memorial donations to Feeding America or a charity of your choice.

Bernice was predeceased by her husband Harold, son David, 

and brother Donald. She is survived by her daughters Ruth Deming of 

Willow Grove, Pa.; Donna Cartagena of Clarksboro, N.J.; 

Ellen Greenwold of Huntingdon Valley, Pa.; 

Lynn Greene of New Hope, Pa.; and Amy Greenwold of Seattle, Wash.; 

sisters-in-law Mary Begis and Selma Greenwold; 

grandchildren Melissa (Richard) Degrassi, Nikki (Steve Roche) Cartagena, 

Sarah (Ethan Iverson) Deming, Daniel (Nicole) Deming, 

Jade (Matthew Piccirilli) Greene, Miles Greene, Alex Pomper, and 

Natalie (Dion) Wheeler; seven beloved great-grandchildren; and one adorable 

great-great-grandson.

I have been asked to help find a good psychiatrist

 SCHWARTZ

DR. LAURENCE M.
On April 17, 2020 of Bala Cynwyd, formerly of Abington, husband of the late Diana (nee Fogel), Father of Nina (Michael) Rosenthal. Grand-father of Nathalie and Jonathan. Services and Interment are private. Contributions in his memory may be made to a charity of the donors' choice.

IT WILL NOT BE LARRY SCHWARTZ. 

I did find a Jonathan Small at Abington who seemed okay.

Just made a couple of scrambled eggs and chopped up some of Sarah's leftover garlic. Delicious. 

It is a little frightening to have trick or treaters wandering the streets. As I said earlier, I used up all the candy after a couple of hours. Joli Price did me a favor and brought in the table upon which I had a pumpkin filled with yummy candy.

She is running for our school board. Her sign is on my lawn.

Signed sealed and delivered.

Pure Slush Rejects Every Story I Send - Happy Halloween - Quelle decorations

 Matt informed me via email that I did not follow proper procedure.

It is now a dusky 4:36 pm. 

My big plastic pumpkin is outside filled with candy. Last night I ate Twix Bars and Snickers. Then I got on my bike and rode for half an hour. Not easy.

Just ate an Amy's Pad Thai, vegetarian. Delicious. While it baked in the oven, I walked around block stargazing at all the wonderful Halloween decorations.

Discovered an art channel of the National Gallery in Washington DC. Constant lectures are on. Today we learned about THE BATHERS by Paul Cezanne.

Oh look! She's got it in her bedroom. But you know what? You can buy reprints immediately at Walmart!

The Bathers became very famous after Paul Cezanne's death. Picasso loved it. Our guide told us there is NO WATER in the Bathers.

Did we see it at Z Barnes?

Hold on. 

Darlings, you must see what I posted. Click here. 

We hope this works.

Scuse me while I take a sip of my Trader Joe's Autumn Harvest Tea.

No caffeine. 

REJECTED

Each and every one of them was a gem

Spellbinding, suspenseful, shocking, and written 

in my own voice. But when you own your

publication, you have the right to dissent. 

I have watched every single TV tour by Rick Steves

 

Rick Steves, travel writer in his hometown of Edmonton WA. 

He wrote an essay for the NY Times on the importance of travel.

To help us understand other lands.

On a recent morning, Rick Steves was wandering around the ancient Tuscan town of Volterra with a new crop of tour guides. His company’s trips to Europe are set to resume in February after a nearly two-year pandemic hiatus, and the guides were midway through a nine-day trip around Italy to learn “what makes a Rick Steves tour a Rick Steves tour.” One of the stops on their itinerary was Volterra, a medieval hilltop town whose stone walls are 800 years old. Mr. Steves — who has been to Tuscany many times for his popular public broadcasting show and YouTube channel — was relishing being back.

“We’re surrounded by the wonders of what we love so much, and it just makes our endorphins do little flip-flops,” he said during a phone interview.

That unabashed enthusiasm has fueled Mr. Steves’s empire of guidebooks, radio shows and TV programs, as well as tours that have taken hundreds of thousands of Americans overseas since he started running them in 1980.

Along the way, Mr. Steves has built a reputation for convincing hesitant Americans to make their first trip abroad — and that first trip is often to Europe, which Mr. Steves has called “the wading pool for world exploration.” But he also speaks passionately about the value of travel to places like El Salvador and Iran, and he’s open about how his time in other countries has shaped his views on issues like world hunger and the legalization of marijuana.
