Shoes News

 
Had been kinda ready for a new pair of sneakers but didn’t want to pull the trigger. Got my eye on a Starter jacket that I don’t need, new glasses and tires that are needed, and a few other items. So of course Tuesday I stopped by a couple of stores on the way home. At the first store I passed on a pair of shoes and two pair of black pants, since I recently got three new pairs of black pants. At the second store I found a pair of Nikes that I couldn’t turn down. Gotta stop them from squeaking when I walk.

Also stopped by McDonalds for a caramel frappe. Pretty good, considering I don’t like coffee.

Baby Shivonne has been rocking one of two pairs of Air Jordans that she owns. She and Will (& MC) are surpassing me in the sneaker department.

Savvy of Biden to compliment Trump for getting the booster shot. Now all the Trump supporters are mad at The Donald. 

Just started a novel by Hillary Clinton and Louise Penny – State of Terror. About a new female secretary of state for a newly inaugurated President. I had been on the wait list for it, so I am pausing my book on Abe Lincoln, which is historical fiction, about a plot to kill Lincoln as he arrives in Washington to become president.

I have read so many JFK books and Lincoln books, I don’t need any more of those. Have you read any of the Dan Brown books, like the Da Vinci Code? He has a couple set in and around Washington DC. All with the same main character professor Robert Langdon, played by Tom Hanks. Similar to a modern day Indiana Jones / Harrison Ford. Another movie series I liked was National Treasure. Adventure surrounded by national history.

Six teams with the most hopeless futures, according to some “expert”: Giants, Panthers, Jaguars, Jets, Falcons, and Bears. He could be right.

Speaking of the Giants and Bears, both teams are started backup quarterbacks this weekend. Interesting harmonic convergence on Twitter stating such. Fromm starting, Fields sitting. The woeful Giants didn't give Fromm much support.

Watched another episode of Young Sheldon: “A Math Emergency”. Guest star was Megan Park, who starred in one of Ceil’s favorite Hallmark movies: Once Upon a Prince. The movie was set in coastal Georgia and opened with shots of the Tybee and St Simons lighthouses, but was filmed in Canada.

Denison: the world heralded the good news that missionaries held captive in Haiti since October 16 were free. Five had been released but the other twelve made "a daring overnight escape." On the night of December 15, they made their way through a closed door and walked for miles over difficult, moonlit terrain with an infant and other children in tow. Navigating by the stars, they made their way to a house near the highway where they discovered two Christians practicing music for church on Sunday. The twelve were flown to Florida on a US Coast Guard flight.
