Less rain than expected

it rained  the day before yesterday but not as much as forecasted.  Our weather people revel in their warnings of impending weather doom for us.  But alas, it rained all day but not in a torrent as predicted.  Our neighborhood had some power outages on the next street, but the penitentiary was not affected.  

Have tried out the newest season of The Bear. The cacophony of all the screaming and cursing between characters was kind of interesting and compelling in the first two seasons.  Now, it's just so much yelling and does little to make the characters more relatable.  I don't expect it to be Father Know Best  or Leave it to Beaver, but a little softening and empathy

would go a long way.  Have viewed the first two episodes and will try a third. Janine tells me that the later episodes allow the story to hit its stride.

This is Shannon and the two Debbies from her Sunday visit.  All seemed to be having fun.

We are in the 3rd and final season of Professor T, a PBS presentation.  It's very British and the pacing is kind of slow so it takes some time to adjust to.  Jasper Tempest is a learned professor of criminology on the autism spectrum somewhere.  He has an interloping artist mother that is one of the most enduing characters.  It's a quirky crime show, but very stodgy.  They do, however develop the personalities quite well.   We watched the last episode last night and I am saddened by the ending.  Still a very good show and there is the promise of a 4th season in 2025.  It is hard when a character is lost and you are left with a sinking feeling.  Oh well, its just a show.
