Another movie day for me


There is a wonderful family in our ward by the name of Tharps. They also moved here from California they just did so 14 years ago. Her husband also commuted back and forth for 11 years before they felt that they could take the pay cut they would get by getting local employment. He went from about $150,000 to $70,000. He said they had their mortgage paid off so they could afford it then. They said they think it would be easier to do now due to the technology available like texting and email and cell phones and webcams. We agree.


Anyway, Sister Tharp is a "Red Hat Lady". Not sure what that means yet but they have invited me to join them on a movie outing today. We are going to see "The Ultimate Gift". I was talking to Shelley last night and she said that her and Stephen had already seen it and enjoyed it alot. She also said to bring tissues. After speaking with her my curiousity was aroused having never heard of this movie before this and I googled it and found a trailer and the official movie site. I have to tell you I am truly looking forward to this movie and would encourage all of you to go see it if you can still find it in your area or rent it on dvd or buy it. It looks pretty incredible. I'll let you know how many tissues I use and rate it that way......just kidding. LOL.

Sounds tempting, but I have always maintained that I have enough in my own life to cry about - I don't need a movie to make it worse. If you come across a good comedy or romance, let me know.
