Liam Neeson was also in Krull, which was also filmed partly in the Canary Islands. I've seen several other movies filmed there, including The People That Time Forgot, The Land That Time Forgot, One Million Years B.C., The Mysterious Island, and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe. Some of Dr. Who episodes were also filmed there, but I haven't watched many of those. I especially like the "...That Time Forgot" series - we have them on DVD, as well as the other ones I mentioned. I have the previous version (1981) of Clash of the Titans. Lars

Checking in - have been unpacking stuff that has been waiting for the bedroom closet. With the additional shelves on the sides they are now my linen closet replacement (don't have one in this house) so I'm pretty pleased with this. Now I can move our hanging clothing still in the trailer through the wash and finally home. Happy Happy! And as the boxes leave here, the space is evolving. More items are finding where they belong or don't. I watched another episode of Hoarders today - I know we are all on the right track. I understand the psychology on how things can get out of control when life wallops you, I understand how good it feels when you regain control again instead of letting items take over. We are all different. Our belongings mean different things to each and everyone of us. I want to cherish what brings me joy, memories, are of practical use. Sometimes things change along with their value. Life changes. I want to change with it down the path where I can step freely. Tonight will should be a better sleep not seeing items pushed against the wall because they had no home. Our bathroom feels like heaven when taking a shower because there is room enough not to knock things down, stub my toe. Our kitchen will continue to be a work in progress until we get those cupboards but at least I can choose to have organized storage until then...and hopefully we can both keep it that way. Instead of walking around something that should be put away, I'm going to start picking more up every day. That job is becoming so much less hassle as my space has definition. Clutter brings clutter. Space brings peace. Next week I think will be a great week to clean the windows again to enjoy the sunny days when they arrive. See the snow sparkle at night when it falls. It all starts with one box, one bag, one item. We are doing this. We are empowered. Please share your week with us, ups and downs. Are you feeling better now? Until later, need a cuppa and think about dinner for later. Cheers my friends, Peggy

Kat, it isn't a horror movie, but it's about an insane asylum. The book was great. Our bookclub read it several years ago and we still talk about it. The book wasn't scary at all to me.

My recipe is the easiest one in the whole world and it gets rave reviews. Dump a large can of frozen limeade into a pitcher. Fill that can up with silver tequila and add to the pitcher. (You could use gold but it changes the color of the drink.) Then add a 12 ounce can of beer. Stir well and serve over ice in salted glasses. Garnish with a wedge of lime. I'm making bacon jalapeño soup tonight, I think a pre-dinner margarita sounds perfect!
