Do youj get so engrossed in the movie, it seems so real

I helped my grand ma make soap ,butter,Didnt do to much else in the kitchen but I can make my own clothes and back then they had one outfit for go to meeting clothes that was kept nice to go to dances too. and then there were those Saturday baths in a rince tub a #3 with Pine oil in it to make ya smell good. They had a hand pump outside for the water we would have to cary in to wash clothes, dishes and take that bath. I tell ya one thing back then kids were kept busy they didnt have time to pout and getinto trouble.

I would have a hard time with the bath part. I am allergic to Pine Sol Oil. And I am not that good at sewing, but I am quite good at making a meal from scratch and I can make bread.

I often wonder how people survived in the Old West, having to make their own soap, sew their own clothes, and live on chili and beans and still look nice enough to go to a Saturday night dance.

I used to live alone before I was murdered, and I lived in a bad neighborhood, so I get rather engrossed in a movie when someone is walking and there is someone about to grab her, but mostly it is not familiar situations. It is when it is something that never happened to me in real life, like on a pirate ship or a space station or living in olden times. How could she run that fast wearing that corset, and all those petticoats, and he is on a horse?

I mean before I was married. I was thinking of a novel and I was also listening to the Mad Scene on Lucia di Lammamoor. Not a good thing to do.

With me it is those "Women in Danger" films and those where someone is really threatening someone and that someone does not have the sense of a flea. I think how could she not know?

Cannot promise anything as I am busy myself, but will try.

I have no trouble with either, although it is what the characters are going to do next, or what happens in the background that I get excited about in the movies, like the serial killer behind the door, bit. Whereas in the books, I have to imagine the characters doing ordinary things since I cannot actually see them on the screen. I find it easy to draw into a movie, but then I like movies with a lot of action, science fiction, the heroine in danger, and the hero trying to save her, and it looks like he will get there too late.

I do not get that engrossed with a book, because I cannot afford to, but I sometimes imagine the characters and if it is well written, imagine I am there watching. And when I go to bed at night, I will dream I am actually in the place and it is not as if I am in a book, I am in the actual scene. I find it better with movies, so if there is a scary movie, I try not to watch it before I go to sleep.

And I thought I was the only one who did that! Drives my husband crazy. :)

I am not a Green Mile fan, but I watched several movies that I felt like screaming, "don;t open the door! or Don't go down to the basement," or "haven't you got a brain in your head, lady, he's the bad guy and you tell him everything, where's that feminine intuition you are supposed to have?"
