Saturdays

Consider a Saturday afternoon: the elaborate lunch has been done with, dishes washed and leftovers stashed in plastic boxes. Then, it is time to watch a movie on demand. For the purposes of charm, this movie should ideally have a whodunit murder plot set around inheritance, extramarital affairs, revenge, deceit and a moment of Second Amendment passion, which a divorced detective cracks open.
This genre of movie and the practice of watching movies to get over weekends does not seem to be in vogue. Common activities of leisure involve the expenditure of money and energy, as:
(1). The primary hobby of the New World: Sniffing out discount sales, saving money by spending it and Home and Garden TV afflictions.
(2). Inconvenient outdoor extertions: In addition to other excesses of outsourced and "on-site" jobs, Indian men and women have decided that camping and skiing are natural ways of killing time.

    You are one of the very few people who makes one wish you write more often than you do! At the best once again.

    introduced ஆம்படயாள் to a knitting group.
    made one trip to the nearby joann(.com).
    saturday afternoons, sunday evenings, or any other time the urge seems to arise, gave her the implements to knit. works like magic - not particularly great for my liver though.
