Duplex (2003)

We started to watch the movie Duplex (2003) last night..... and we made it in about 15 minutes before we switched it off and did something else.

Anything else.

Predictable, grimacable, terrible.

I guess that we shall never know what happened in the end.

As if we care!

So, forget about the movie Duplex (2003) with Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore.

There are some great examples here !!

Yeast





Sheesh !! What is it with yeast powder in this house? For some reason, my Loved One has dropped powdered yeast all over the kitchen floor.

TWICE !!

And not just a little, but about a cup full of the tiny little pellets that roll and bounce and get all over....

Then they are cleaned up - sort of. In secret. Until I walk in and just happen to glance down and see puddles of the yellow powder in several places over the floor. This is AFTER it has been 'cleaned'.

There has to be something in the odour that makes the containers 'jump' from her hands and fall to the floor.

Anyway, it has been cleaned up, again, and we shall await the next installment in the yeast powder saga.

Awkard Family Photos


Here is a site that should make you cringe......

Family photos that should NOT be on the web.....

Shots that should have NEVER been printed.....

But, luckily for us they survived, and are gathering here for your amusement.

Friends and the BBQ





How good is it? A warm sunny day as Summer starts and a BBQ at a friend's home. Children too excited to say hello to the grown-ups, a wonderfull array of foods, perfect weather. Topics of conversation vary, the trampoline is well used, a drink of lemonade spilt on the grass. The sound of a wine cork mixes with the crack of a beer can. Tales of travels in places the other side of the globe are heard, along with discussions of a five year old's schooling, and the saga of the new back fence. See how it exceeds the local limit?

The food and drink is great, the children climb a tree. Chairs are scattered under the shade and a treasure hunt starts.

Laughter.

Sunshine.

Conversation.

!! How good is that ?? !!

We are so lucky.
