Sunday Night TV

via

This moving image is very hypnotic, isn't it? I stated awake last night for all of Sherlock but turned the TV off before watching all of the behind the scenes part. I loved it. I want to watch it again on my iPad or computer so I can read the text messages, notes on small scraps of paper, and the other "type" on the screen. My flatscreen in my bedroom isn't very big and I miss out on anything that has to be read. FYI, Watson's fiancé is Martin Freeman's real-life partner. How nice! I thought she looked familiar and just found out she played Isobel Brown, one of the bridesmaids in Doc Martin 2007. I like her and think she's a great addition to the cast, don't you?

I am Sherlocked. Are you?

Keep Calm and Drink Tea

Watch the weather and drink tea, isn't that what you're doing? It started snowing a little over an hour ago and it's too dark to see it coming down without the spotlights on. So I'll just have a cup of tea, go to bed and cover my head, and hope for the best in the morning. via

Countdown to Downton Abbey

Only 3 more days.

Anna fishes for a toy duck as little Sybbie and daddy Tom Branson look on. I have already set my DVR for Sunday's 2-hour premier of Season 4. Can't wait! I just looked at the countdown clock and it's 3 days, 7 hours, 47 minutes exactly. moving image found here

Happy New Year 2014

I love a good fireworks display, don't you? I posted this exploding ball on July 4th and it's perfect for New Year's Eve too. Have a lovely last night of 2013.

Ice Skating and An Open Fire

Prince Charles playing with delight in 1949

Princess Elizabeth, the Duchess of Edinburgh, playing around with her young son and heir, Prince Charles, in 1949.

It's easy to see he was adored by his mother. I love these animated gifs, don't you? Imagine what fun they must have had at Christmas!!!! via

Moon Over Manhattan - animated gif

Moon over Manhattan. via

Tonight we will have a waning Gibbous moon in Cancer with the sun in Sagittarius. It's all very complicated and interesting, isn't it? See the current moon calendar here. I don't really follow the astrological signs but plenty of people do. My mother used to be a dental assistant and one patient wouldn't have any dental work done if the sign was in the head. See the Medical Astrology chart here.

And you know they are.

Downton Abbey, Season 4 - three weeks from today. via

Sheep in the Snow

We have bright sun this morning and there will be icicles as the snow melts and freezes at the same time. It's very beautiful from the inside looking out. I am wearing a double layer of fleece and the radiators are hot so I'm cozy. Fleece pajamas with a long fleece robe on top comprise my double layer. Webster is dozing on the sofa waiting for his breakfast and Tabitha is on my bed. They have both been out and neither stayed very long. When I venture out today, I'm going to see if the flock of sheep around the corner like the snow as much as the one above. See you later. 

Dog Sledding -- Literally

Hilarious. Found here. There is a video of these crazy dogs sledding here. They look like they are having so much fun.

If at first you don't succeed...

I found the source for these images seen through Giorgio Armani lenses. Seeing New York via Ann Street Studio. Click on the link to see more. I love them too.

Tea for Breakfast

I'll have coffee but I'd be happy to make tea as well, if that's your preference. via
