BALANCE

Last night at bedtime, I started a new read: a Stephen King book – ‘Octobery’ stories πŸ˜‰M

New Read; looks like a dog bit it ... it's a compilation of stories; I'll finish reading 'The Monkey' tonight, in bed.
Hmmm; 'Boogie Man' seems to be the going theme this month.

I was up very early this morning, enjoying the quiet morning hours – and picking up where I left off last at midnight; I lazed about 95% of the day, reading:

I was up before the sun ...
The storyline was very familiar; I had watched the movie 2 days ago.

But movies aren’t the same as books – boohoowood takes a great deal of license with rewrites; and though there are many similarities to the original story, the movie deviates sharply from the book’s original storyline: books are more into details, working the imagination; movies are more into in-your-face-flash-n-dash grabbing of attention. And Stephen King books/movies are kinda predictable whether you’re reading or watching – the storyline is pretty much the same novel after novel, rarely changing the thrust of the backstory while reworking the storyline here and there just enough to actually sell it as ‘something new’.

That said, I did enjoy reading the story … and moving along into the third story πŸ˜‰

After Supper, I did finish the white preemie sacque gown; and am now working on little knitted beanies to match the purple one, as well as the white one.

These early-born babies, are so tiny.

It’s been a quiet day, filled with Autumn scent, on the homefront this Shabbat. I am blessed 😊
