Ice Day!

Awoke to an snow/ice storm here today. Mostly icy rain all day, so it's best to stay off the roads!

Making productive use of my time though. Here's a list I've been wanting to complete since seeing it on Lacie's blog. Answers are in no particular order except for the preference for books and movies!

Seven Things to Do Before I Die
  1. Dance with my husband (preferably to Michael Buble’s rendition of Sway, not that I have this planned out or anything)
  2. See Leonardo Da Vinci’s notebooks at the British Library
  3. Lead someone to the Lord
  4. Publish, publish, publish
  5. Learn to play Liebestraum
  6. Write my memoirs
  7. Start a new trend

Seven Things I Cannot Do

  1. Write with my right hand
  2. Whistle
  3. Drive a car that’s not an automatic
  4. Use a sewing machine
  5. Change the oil in my car
  6. Tie a cherry stem with my tongue
  7. Keep African Violets alive more than three months

Seven Books (or series) I Love

  1. Ecclesiastes
  2. Les Miserables
  3. Pride & Prejudice
  4. Mere Christianity, Abolition of Men, and A Grief Observed (anything by C.S. Lewis
  5. Hamlet (okay, it’s a play, but it still counts)

Seven Movies I Would Watch Over and Over Again

  1. Pride & Prejudice (1995 BBC version or 2005 Matthew MacFadyen, er, Working Title Films version)
  2. Clue: The Movie ("There's no body. There's nobody here. Mr. Body's body, it's gone!")
  3. Singin’ in the Rain (the perfect musical comedy ensemble)
  4. Anne of Green Gables / Anne of Avonlea (a classic, enough said)
  5. Les Miserables in Concert at the Royal Albert Hall (okay, not quite a movie, but I have it on DVD, so it counts)
  6. Ocean’s 11 (If it were legal, I'd love to devise plans like that!)
  7. Mickey Blue Eyes (the funny run; "Eat cookie!"; "Die, piggy, die!")
