Rebecca got paid today!

Last night I finally watched the DVD of Citizen Kane that Ben lent me. The entire time I was watching it, I shelled pecans from the big bag that Grandma gave me. And in almost two hours – Citizen Kane’s running time, according to its page at IMDb – I managed to shell just over one cup of pecans. It’ll be slow going, but as along as I have good movies to watch, I don’t mind. Tomorrow I’m going to shell some more while watching Aunt Carolyn’s old copy of It Happened One Night. I’m doing very well on my goal to watch a lot of classic American films this year. (But my goal to watch films with notable child actress performances, not so much.)

Dear Rebecca,
Aunt connie here. If you still happen to have the movie Citizen Kane, I would love to watch it, I promise to return it in 24 hours. Of course you can check with Ben first, I have never seen and want to desperately! Talked to Grandma about Thanksgiving dinner today, your stuffing is on the menu. I am bringing a wonder fresh olive salad ( i know you love those veggies) and my mother-in-law's wonderful yam casserole with extra pecans. John has to work and I still don't know about my girls' work schedule, but Eva and I will be there. Love you and Sara too, ME

I don't see Ben very often anymore. I will ask him next time I see him, but I don't know when that will be. Might not be until Thanksgiving, if then.
