Ted Lasso is as good as they said, if a smidge profane.

We are trying to go slow on Only Murders in the Building, since Season 3 is one episode a week, after that double-dip the first week.

If you are looking for summer fluff to tide you over, I will never stop recommending Ghosts on CBS. It's about family, even when that means people you are stuck with.

You guys.

The Ted Lasso Christmas episode.

That is all.

We'll have to check it out

Next up:

Entertainment (previously Weekly) had a piece on 20 family-friendly movies available on Prime https://ew.com/genre/movies/best-family ... zon-prime/, and I picked out some that I think roomie and I will both like.

How to Train Your Dragon
Iron Giant (the players watched this in a previous Ted Lasso episode)
Rio
Troop Zero

I had never heard of the last one. But of course I was in on the first one as soon as I saw Craig Ferguson's name.

I appreciate your concealing spoilers on these, even though they are old. They are new to me.

You guys:

Only Murders, Season 3, episode 3, THAT SONG.

A ballad can be a showstopper. And it doesn't hurt that the tune is very similar to the show's musical theme. But WITH WORDS.

Spoiler

Every nanny should be a lighthouse!

And just found out, my idol Sara Bareilles co-wrote “Look for the Light” because she is amazing.

I think I loved How to Train Your Dragon even more than my grands.

I wrote this last night:

Gotta Let Go: A Lighthouse No More

(Verse 1)
C G Am F
Hey, it's been a while since we said goodbye;
C G Am F
Thought we closed that chapter; let it all just die.
Dm C G F
But you're back again, knockin' on my door;
Dm C G F
Did you really think I'd feel how I felt before?

(Pre-Chorus)
Am F C G
Love's a burning candle; sometimes it's gotta go out.
Am F C G
Don't you understand what movin' on is all about?

(Chorus)
F C G Am
I can't be your lighthouse in a sea of dark despair.
F C G Am
You're obsessed, and it ain't fair.
F C G Am
The love we had is gone, like a whisper in the air.
F G C
You've gotta let go, gotta let go; we're no longer a pair.

(Verse 2)
C G Am F
You text me late at night, sayin' you're alone.
C G Am F
You linger in my life like an unpaid loan.
Dm C G F
I've got my boundaries drawn up in red.
Dm C G F
You say you miss me, but I'm light-years ahead.

(Pre-Chorus)
Am F C G
Love's a burning candle; sometimes it's gotta go out.
Am F C G
Don't you understand what movin' on is all about?

(Chorus)
F C G Am
I can't be your lighthouse in a sea of dark despair.
F C G Am
You're obsessed, and it ain't fair.
F C G Am
The love we had is gone, like a whisper in the air.
F G C
You've gotta let go, gotta let go; we're no longer a pair.

(Bridge)
Dm C F G
I wish you well, don't get me wrong;
Dm C F G
It's just that our love story's no longer a song.
Dm C F G
You're a faded photograph, a chapter closed.
Dm C F G
It's time to leave behind what you've long opposed.

(Pre-Chorus)
Am F C G
Love's a burning candle; sometimes it's gotta go out.
Am F C G
Don't you understand what movin' on is all about?

(Chorus)
F C G Am
I can't be your lighthouse in a sea of dark despair.
F C G Am
You're obsessed, and it ain't fair.
F C G Am
The love we had is gone, like a whisper in the air.
F G C
You've gotta let go, gotta let go; we're no longer a pair.

(Outro)
F C G Am
Turn your ship around, sail to a new shore.
F C G Am
Our love's a ghost town; don't haunt it anymore.
F G C
You've gotta let go, gotta let go; we're no longer a pair.
F G C
You've gotta let go, gotta let go; it's time for self-care.



I told my older granddaughter to give it to her ex.

I forget, you play guitar etc?
