As I sit and write my column I am also watching the Oscar Awards, Al Pacino is one hot-looking old man. Thanks to the $8.99 a month I pay for my Netflix account I got to see Two Popes, The Irishman and so many other good movies. I have to see a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood with Tom Hanks and also Once Upon A Time in Hollywood with Brad Pitt. I really do not watch that much TV, but I do like a good movie sitting in my chair crocheting and, of course, on my iPhone on Facebook.

I started the year off a little depressed because I did not have any vacations or concerts planned for 2020. Thanks to Facebook my sister and I hooked up with 2 of my older cousins in England, and we are renting a house in Galway Bay, Ireland for a week, to see my other Irish cousins. My cousin Donnie, who is my pal has a daughter in Florida so we will go down there for a long weekend. I got tickets to see Charlie Daniels and The Marshall Tucker Band, Arlo Guthrie with Judy Collins. I am sure I will see some concerts at Bethel Woods also so life is good.
