CHOCOLATES AND BOND.

When was the last time you relaxed and enjoyed doing something you really want to do but never seem to find the time?. We are already in the 6th month of 2017 and I have suddenly realized that from the beginning of the year it has been non-stop work for me and hardly any fun - and I live five minutes away from at least three beaches. Life is short - and from this weekend there will be a change. This Saturday I will borrow some of my favorite James Bond movies and have a Bond marathon in the evening. I will also indulge in a few select pieces of chocolate (which I haven't had in over a year) - and probably a strawberry milkshake - haven't had that in five years. So, what are your plans for this Saturday night? And is there anything special that you like to do when you have some time for yourself? Picture above is a sketch I did of James Bond some years ago.

@Kandae11 I have several friends that live close to the beach. They said when they first moved there, they were down at the beach at least some every day. As time went on they wandered over to the beach less and less.

Maybe I am not so much of a beach babe after all. To be honest, I hate having to wash sand off my shoes, feet and clothes.

Wow that is a very good sketch! I love it. No I have to say I have been all work and no fun for about a year now, since taking on the job of tending to Tony. BUT I am thinking the beach and a small road trip is in order for me, I just need to find someone to take care of my animals while I am gone.

Thank you. One should have even a short break - remember the saying -"All work and no play...."

My favorite Australian worship music group is called Hillsong - any connection there?

That is the good thing about audio books - and movies as well. You can do other things while listening or watching.

@Kandae11 I've gotten hooked on audiobooks. Unfortunately they're not cheap. Some publishers on Kindle have started adding the audio option for an additional $1.99. I really like that as I can switch back and forth.

I can't have it everyday - I am trying to keep away from sweet stuff. Once every three months will be fine.

I will probably sit and watch TV with Mom and stitch. While technically the stitching is "work", I also find it relaxing.

That would be nice and relaxing too - at the same time being a companion to your mom.

Great sketch. Have fun with Bond. This weekend we are going to spend a lot of time doing yard work. My hubby is a great Bond fan but he prefers only the movies with Sean Connery.

Sean Connery first , followed by Timothy Dalton and Pierce Brosnan would be my favorites.

Is the sketch of Timothy Dalton? My husband and I took a wild guess.

No, it is Pierce Brosnan - he does look a bit like Timothy - my two favorite Bonds.

That's Pierce Brosnan, right? He was always a good Bond. They all were, though I really like the original Sean Connery Bond movies. I like your plans. I don't know what my plans are for tonight. Perhaps a movie, but I have no idea which one at this point.

@Kandae11 I don't know if I've seen any with Timothy Dalton. I know I saw them with Roger Moore who recently passed.

@just4him Timothy Dalton appeared in only two Bond movies. "The Living Daylights" and "Licence to Kill".

You guessed right. Apart from Sean Connery , I think the next best two were Pierce Brosnan and Timothy Dalton.

I usually do something I enjoy every day. That is when I'm feeling well. I enjoy reading, writing, sewing, walking and painting. So my likes aren't complicated. Love your drawing.

Wow Kandase, that is one amazing drawing, girl you are mega talented. I like what you have planned, sounds yummy. I will more than likely sing, I sing a lot. I will be sharing some tracks with you all here at myLot in the near future. That's my idea of fun. Music is international and no matter what it's always playing somewhere in the world. Have a good one Kandase, big hugs from Cathy XO
