Watchmen

PLOT: In an alternate 1985 where former superheroes exist, the murder of a colleague sends active vigilante Rorschach into his own sprawling investigation, uncovering something that could completely change the course of history as we know it.

OPINION:
Really slow start & after an hour I fell asleep. Aaron ended up not watching the entire movie and was dosing off. When I realized, the movie was 2 hours & 43 minutes. I'm not sure I'll finish it. I wasn't too impressed with the first hour & if something doesn't happen... I give up.

Despicable Me

PLOT: When a criminal mastermind uses a trio of orphan girls as pawns for a grand scheme, he finds himself profoundly changed by the growing love between them.

OPINION: Loved this movie. It was cute & funny. The old villain turned softy.

"Treasure Hunt" Herald Dispatch

The Herald Dispatch had a "treasure hunt" contest. My mother cut out the eight different businesses that I visited to get stamped. I received a phone call from the Herald Dispatch on Wednesday the 22nd to inform me that I had won the 1st place prize. I received eight $100 gift certificates from each business that stamped the paper. Since my Mom was the one who knew about the contest & cut it out then I gave her first pick. We laid all eight gift cards on the table and took turns picking. She picked (Glenn's Sporting Goods, Wright's Men's clothing, City Kids & Adelle's Antiques). I picked (Reuschlein's Jewelers, Magic Makers Costumes, Merle Norman cosmetics & Crumpets & Tea/Custom Framing). I couldn't believe we had won. I've never won anything before. Merry Christmas to us!

One gift card down..

Kelty 3900 ST


Howard & Janith bought me a Kelty 3900 ST for Christmas. I got to see it today to try it on & make sure it fits. I'm ready to start hiking & camping with Aaron & Roxy. They both love it as much I do.
