Watching… Mr & Mrs Murder. I’d been planning to watch this show ever since watching Offspring. Billie, played by Kat Stewart, was my favorite character on that show and I suspected I would like other shows with Stewart. I’m enjoying this quirky murder mystery involving husband and wife crime scene cleaners. Stewart must be good…

Watching… My Life is Murder. This Australian mystery procedural is becoming a fast favorite. It stars Lucy Lawless and is in a similar vein as Castle and Instinct. Like those shows, it’s character-driven, with each episode revealing a bit more about the three main cast members. I’m also loving the setting of Melbourne, along with…

How have you been? This year has been rough. I am so discouraged by the growing division and hatred that I see. So many things that shouldn’t be political have become so. I support the Black Lives Matter movement and have been thinking a lot about how I can learn and grow as a white…

Watching… A Confession. I think I originally saw a preview of this on Facebook and decided to get a trial of BritBox so I could watch. It’s pretty dark and centers around the death of two young women. There are also some pretty realistic scenes involving drug addiction. It could definitely be triggering. But it…

Watching… Military Wives. When I saw a preview of this movie on Facebook the other day, I was intrigued. I love Sharon Horgan, so I searched it out and found it for free on Hulu. It’s the story of a group of military wives that start up a choir while their spouses are deployed. It…

Watching… Dead to Me. It seems like forever since I watched the first season of this series. I had forgotten a lot of pieces of the story. I blew threw the second season and really enjoyed it. If you like dark comedies, you should definitely watch this one. It’s similar in tone to Barry. Reading……

Watching… Bosch. I binge-watched Season 6 over the weekend and it did not disappoint. It starts out with a terrorist plot that thankfully was not the main storyline of the season. I think that might have been a little too dark for me at the moment. It was a good season. I love that Maddie…

Watching… The Brokenwood Mysteries. I finished Doc Martin and have a few days left on my Acorn Subscription. I had not yet seen the last season of Brokenwood so I’m trying to get through it. They actually make good companion series. Doc Martin is not a mystery, but they both have that small-town setting with…

How was your weekend? The weather here was almost perfect. I spent most of the weekend working in the yard. I’m hoping quarantining helps me get my yard into shape. Watching… CBS Sunday Morning. I’ve all but given up on regular news watching (other than my flash briefing from Alexa and the local news to…

Watching… Yesterday. My book club opted to watch this movie instead of reading a book. It’s a fun movie – light-hearted with lots of good music. It’s not anything deep, but if you like the Beatles, you would likely enjoy it. Reading… Untamed. For a while it seemed like this book was everywhere I looked….
