Song Sung Blue

 Good morning once again from rainy Arizona.  Mr. Cooper says no big deal, he would rather sleep the morning away anyway.  We are down to the mid 40's and my heater is working overtime.  It's okay because I'm not really cold until we get into the 30's, and I doubt that will happen.  

Though our plans used to include long drives to Ghost Towns, Mr. Cooper doesn't last quite last that long any more, so we just hung out until the rain stopped.  I kept checking my cameras to see if Kitters was still around, and I'm happy to report she is at least is coming in to eat.  I feel bad leaving her for so long.  

SO ... let's go see a movie!!  Who ever thought Hugh Jackman (Wolverine) could sing.  Certainly not me.  His co-star Kate Hudson (daughter of Goldie Hawn) played his wife in Song Sung Blue.  

But FIRST ..... movie tickets for 3 ... $31.00.  Medium popcorn for 2 with 2 small cokes ... $29.00.  It's not cheap to go to the movies any more.  Though this wasn't a movie I would probably pick, it certainly kept us interested and enthralled for the entire show.  

If that title sounds familiar, it's a Neil Diamond song.  This was a true story about a couple who became famous singing Neil Diamond songs on stage ... and even opened for Pearl Jam.  Anyone remember them? There are lots of ups and downs and a lot of singing.  I can't say it was my all time favorite movie, but it was excellently done and had us sitting on the edge of our seats.  I won't give the ending away, you'll have to watch the movie.

I hung out with Cooper for a couple of hours before heading inside for dinner.  THIS is that turkey sandwich I had the other day.  Walmart will be my best friend from now on.  This is their sourdough bread that is soft and perfect for sandwiches.  I swear, there is nothing better!  I even had a few bites of Walmart deviled egg potato salad.  I have never EVER bought a pre-made salad that I liked .... until now.  I'll be going back to buy more before I leave for Yuma after New Years.

If the weather would straighten up and fly right, I would head out for a hike.  I am however, allergic to water falling on my head.  Maybe today will bring out the sun.

Song sung blue, everybody knows one ..... it's going to be a week before I get that song out of my head!!
