We thought about going riding this morning, but decided not to. It was windy and both horses were acting a little squirrely.
So, this afternoon we went to see the new Pixar movie, "Bolt." It was great.
We saw it on one of the 3-D screens and, after getting used to the glasses, thought it was really cool.
The story, as usual with Pixar, is really strong and engaging and, as usual with Pixar, the characters are unique and very engaging.
If you're looking for a good afternoon's diversion, we highly recommend going to see "Bolt."
We're getting into our hot tub tonight and we're looking forward to it. We enjoy it during the winter even more than the rest of the year - as long as it's not windy and I think tonight is going to be OK.
Today is January 14 and if today is your Birthday then you share your day with: Jason Bateman (actor), LL Cool J (rapper), Faye Dunaway (actress, "Bonnie & Clyde"), Andy Rooney (CBS commentator and curmudgeon), William Bendix (actor, "The Life of Riley"), Hal Roach (filmmaker who produced "Our Gang" comedies), Albert Schweitzer (humanitarian doctor), and Benedict Arnold (Revolutionary War general convicted of being a traitor).
On this day in 1690 the Clarinet is invented, in Nrnberg, Germany. In 1784 the United States ratified a peace treaty with England ending the Revolutionary War. In 1914 Henry Ford introduced the assembly line method of manufacturing cars, allowing completion of one Model-T Ford every 90 minutes. In 1969 25 crew members of the US aircraft carrier "Enterprise" were killed in an explosion that ripped through the ship off Hawaii (I was on the carrier Enterprise shortly after this happened). And in 1973 the Miami Dolphins became the first NFL team to go undefeated.

My kids are asking to see Bolt. I'll tell John to take them soon.
It sounds perfect and very cute.
The wind usually makes my horse a little nutty, too. I think it's because the wind carries odd odors and horses can't figure out from where the danger might be coming or how far away it is, or what it is.
Enjoy that hot tub. I bet a hot tub would be good for my knee, don't you think? :D

Have a nice dip. I'm working on your questions. I'll send them in a little while.
Dan,
Do you want me to email your questions to you? Or put them here in the comments?
My email address is KeriRN@comcast.net
The kids saw Bolt with Max and all enjoyed. I was tortured doing Christmas shopping--poor time management.
You painted another happy picture of a happy day in the life of Dan and Betty.
Oh, I was so worried when I first read the heading. I thought Sugar took off on Betty. Oh My!! Glad everything is okay though!
