A Li'l Life Update

Hi, friends!


I'm popping on here to let you know that if I seem really absent in the blogging world lately, it's not for lack of enthusiasm.  I've been wanting to write several different posts, but due to some health issues I'm having right now, I haven't had much physical or mental energy to finish them.  Same with comments:  I'm still reading (and loving, may I add) many of your posts, but commenting isn't always doable for me at the moment. 


I'm used to peaks and valleys in my blogging motivation, since I've had this blog for almost seven and a half years.  So that's nothing new, and that doesn't scare me.  But this feels like the longest stretch I've had in a while in which I'm posting so infrequently and commenting so tardily, and I did want to explain that.  Just so you guys don't think I'm yeeting myself out of the blogosphere or something. 😉


All that to say, I'm still here, and I still love this blogging community, and I beg pardon if I don't comment on any posts for a while.  (Like I said, it's more likely than not that I've read them and loved them. 😜)  I'll get back to a more regular posting schedule at some point. 💕


How are you all doing?

    Ok, I love that first picture. It just made me smile.
    Sorry you've been having health issues. That's never fun.
    I always look forward to your posts, but I completely understand having a lack of energy to finish things. *nods*

    I'm so sorry you're dealing with health issues! I hope those resolve as quickly and well as can be expected (or even more quickly and well than can be expected!). Don't worry at all about not being as active on here--take all the time you need. :)

    I'm sorry about your health. I totally understand the ebbs and flows. I've done the same, it's just easier, more realistic.

    *soft hugs* Love you, buddy!

    This is a serious post about a serious topic, but I just want you to know that the phrase "yeeting myself out of the blogosphere" made me chuckle. xD

Comments make my day. Seriously. I'd be so happy if you commented. :)

I've gotten really bad about replying in a timely manner, but it's always my intention to do so eventually. (Even though it doesn't always happen. ;))

Lark Rise to Candleford, Seasons 1-4 {review}

Well, darlin's, here 't'is!  A review of the TV series Lark Rise to Candleford .   SO!  I finished the final season the other night, and am here to discuss my thoughts;)  (Spoilers will be sprinkled indiscriminately!  Read at your own risk;D) LRtC centers around young Laura Timmins, a girl from the wee hamlet of Lark Rise, who moves to the  more affluent town of Candleford to work in her aunt's (or was she just a cousin?) post office.  Miss Dorcas Lane is probably the wealthiest person in Candleford and holds a lot of sway with the townspeople.  With Laura's advent into Candleford, the two communities begin to be intertwined. The show's basic plots aren't my absolute favorites, but I love how relaxed the show is, and how marvelous the characters are.  (Because they just ARE.)  It's a cozy series, but at the same time there are moments of rather intense drama.   I'm not feeling extremely eloquent for reviewin...

Romeo and Juliet (2013) {review}

[Note:  Keep in mind that this review is written from the perspective of someone who has never actually read Romeo and Juliet , m'kay?:)  Also, there'll be spoilers, because, I mean…all things considered, you probably know how it all ends.] I first became seriously interested in watching this movie a) because of the utter gorgeousness of all the stills I saw on the Internet, and b) because it has Hailee Steinfeld.  I'd only seen her in True Grit (2011), but, I thought, wouldn't it be cool to see her in a completely different role? So, yesterday, I watched it.  And…I'm not quite sure what I think of it. First things first.  This movie was beautiful .  It was one of those films where you think, "I want just about this entire movie in screencaps."  The cinematography was excellent.  The lighting, the camera angles, the costumes and sets …aaaaaaahhhhh. See what I mean?? Hailee Steinfeld was absolutely precious as Juliet Capul...

My Dream Cast for a Live-Action Remake of 'The Incredibles'

Alas, no, I am aware of no immediate plans for Disney to produce a live-action version of The Incredibles .  But if such plans should ever materialize . . . have I got a cast ready for them or what. 😉 ⸻ Elastigirl / Helen Parr Emma Stone Emma would rock Helen's grit & sass like no other actress available today & I will not be accepting criticism of that statement at this time.  I would absolutely love to see her in this role.  She would crush it.  Mr. Incredible / Bob Parr Eric Allan Kramer I know he's a leetle too old now, especially as a partner for Stone, but he's the only person I've ever been able to envision as Bob.  (Except Alan Hale, Jr., but he's about six feet too old.)  So it is what it is, peeps.  Violet Parr Mackenzie Foy   I went back and forth on the casting for Violet.  I would also love to see what Millie Bobby Brown could do with the role, so it was difficult to decide.  In the end, I think Mackenzie Foy would ...
