Friday night

Back home from seeing Deathly Hallows Pt. 1. Not a particularly coherent storyline, but I think the director et al did their best. Things moved along better than they did in the book, and much of the repetition was cut. Events happened that I didn't remember reading, but I honestly don't remember much of that book. Except for the repetition. And the fact that waaay too much happened offstage.

That said, I liked the movie and will buy the DVD when it comes out.

In between a fast food dinner (at Chipotle, which for all their bragging of their fresh ingredients is highly overrated) and DH, friend and I went to TJ Maxx. I hadn't expected to buy anything, but I found a black/brown handbag--I liked mixed black/brown just as I like mixed metal jewelry--some orange-scented soap for the bathroom, a CLEAN Winter perfume/body butter gift set that was about 1/3 the advertised price, and a hanger thingie with rows of tiny pockets for sorting jewelry. Maybe in the spring, I will have time to once and for all sort the earrings I've collected over the years.

Home now. Fresh coffee's been brewed. Pups are sleeping. Errands tomorrow, after which I will hunker down as we will be hit with weather, rain followed by a drop in temps and snow. Several inches possible. Then the cold settles in, with below zero temps possible at night. Winter's arrived, I guess.
