It’s Hump Day, and I’ve been visiting blogs and enjoying my coffee. I’ll be vacating the premises soon, as the Exterminator is coming to spray. Even though I only SAW two crickets in the past few weeks, I heard a chorus of them in the laundry room. So…that’s it, guys!
He’ll arrive some time between 8:00-11:00 a.m., and then I will have to leave for a few hours. Luckily, I have books to read….and an appointment with my stylist daughter, Heather. The bear, below, sits at her station. I haven’t named the bear, which I gave her for graduation….which is odd, right? What does she look like to you? Holly?

On Monday, I got my carpet cover from Amazon. It was delivered on Saturday, but since the post office closed at 2:00, I wasn’t able to retrieve it. It was easy to move the stuff out of my nook and slide it in. I am happily rolling around on the slick surface.
I’m reading One True Loves, by Taylor Jenkins Reid, and enjoying it.

On Netflix, I am addicted to a series that is new to me: The Last Tango in Halifax is a British show that I love. The protagonist is played by Sarah Lancashire, who also starred in Happy Valley, another engaging series.
I am on Season 3, with only four episodes left, and I’m already missing these characters! Their lives are so messy, they are so flawed, but I love them all! Except maybe the ex-husband to Caroline (below), who hangs around with hangdog eyes.
***
This sweet couple (below) meet again after 60 years, and realize they never stopped loving each other. But they also face many challenges.
***
So now I must get ready to gather my things about me and vacate…once the exterminator arrives!
More later!

I liked Last Tango in Halifax too! Although it was Derek Jacobi that drew me to it. I was first aware of Sarah Lancashire way back in Coronation Street.

I love Derek too! And I guess I need to check out Coronation Street. Thanks for visiting, Dagny.

As far as I know Sarah has been off of Coronation Street for years. The soap has been going on for over fifty years. I used to get it on a Canadian station and I’m pretty sure she left before I lost that station.
