Make today a Tuesday

I watch stuff when mini me is not home. No, not that kinda stuff! Ok, sometimes I do but that's not what i'm talking about here today.

On the weekends when mini me is with her dad I watch tv shows or movies that she isn't interested in but that I am. Like today for instance. I rented a movie from Netflix. She read the description and was like, "No, doesn't sound all that good to me.". Which is fine with me. I mean that is what life is all about, everyone having their own opinions and likes/dislikes.

So today I put in the movie. Partly I figured that it would be a movie that I could doze off to, since I was tired and needed a nap. That was not the case. This movie made me think. It touched me.

I am not a "sports nut".I enjoy sports. I watch. I enjoy. But that isn't what my life revolves around. I love my job. (Most of the time). But again that isn't what my life revolves around. I do my best to make sure to make time for those in my life that mean something to me. This movie was about all of these things.

If you haven't seen this movie, I highly recommend that you do. Stop, think, listen and take the words to heart. This movie was based on a true story. Based on a book. And for me...books are prized. So now I need to look for this book so that I can read it.

The movie is TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE. It was a very wonderful movie. This movie stars Jack Lemmon and Hank Azaria. Very wonderful movie about what really matters in life and especially when you know that life is coming to an end for you. Don't take those around you for granted, you never know how long they will be with you.

I read a brief article about the book years ago and cried. I figure the book and movie will have me bawling. Our loved ones are so precious and we are here on Earth for such a short time. I wish I knew to appreciate people years ago. I would love to give another hug to my grandparents and several friends.
I love you too!!

Made mini me watch the movie last night. She kept pointing out how "stupid" the movie was....while she wiped the tears.
