Baby It's Cold Outside

On Sunday Dee had to work so I went to church without her. It was the fourth Sunday in Advent. The special music was nice and appropriate for the day. I sat with the Campbells and then we later went out for lunch at Bob Evans. By the time I'd gotten home, the Steeler game was well into the second quarter. The game didn't go well and the home town lost.

When Dee came home, we watched the end of the game and also decided to finish off the chicken cacciatori she'd made the day before. Yummm. Then, since it was bitter cold outside (71 degrees) we stayed in and worked on the jigsaw puzzle and the "brain puzzle" book we'd purchased. We'd been wanting to see the movie "Wall e" so I'd picked it up from a red box and we watched it. It was cute, but now what I'd expected. It provided an interesting commentary on the "land fill" problem, and taken to extreme the people had to leave the earth while the trash was compacted. After years in space, the people got used to being served by robots and became so comfortable that they no longer had to walk or exercise and eventually forgot about going back to earth. A tiny green plant was found by Walle and the plant became a symbol to everyone that the planet was again inhabitable. However, the computers that had taken over didn't want to let the people return to earth.... hummmm.

Tonight we're going to a dinner with the Bogmeisters at Dominicos. Should be fun. But it's still very cold outside - in the teens. No snow - but COLD.
