Welcome one and all – let’s do a little date check-in, because who really knows what day it is anymore, right? This is allegedly Sunday if you can believe what people tell you. Not only that, but it is also the seventh Sunday of Easter – did you know there was more than one? There are eight Sundays between Easter and Pentecost – this is Sunday seven. You want to talk conspiracies: Why only chocolate on the first Sunday? I’m just saying as we are reassessing everything in life chocolate every Sunday of Easter should probably be a thing.  

It is also our eleventh weekend since words like “Unprecedented times, new normal, physical distancing, social distancing, and wash your hands ya filthy animal have become commonplace.  So this is when we are in the world. I hope this finds you well, and if not, may you know that we are in this together and that you are not alone, even though we are apart.

If you are at all a sci-fi geek you know that May 4th is Star Wars Day, because “May the Fourth be with you” and all that. So on May 3rd, or Star Wars Eve, in this time of quarantine, our youngest suggested we do a movie marathon to end all marathons: Let’s watch ALL the star wars movies without stopping, And at first said No – but then – I don't know guys, I remembered our family vacation motto of “if it’s not a good moment it’s a good memory” and we said yes to this very bad idea and at 3:30 pm on Star Wars Eve, May 3rd we started watching and didn’t stop till 26.5 hours later on May the 4th when all 11 movies plus one new Clone wars episode had been watched.  Quarantine does not always make you smarter. And it so happens at our house around 4 am on May the 4th, the fools that were still awake started episode four which is The original movie called: Star Wars: A New Hope.
