I've been trying to figure out what the ending of The Turning meant. Did the governess and the children escape the Fairchild Estate? Or was she insane like her mother?

For the past two days, I have had the privilege of reading the novella collection If It Bleeds by Stephen King (Available on Hardback and Kindle), courtesy of Scribner.
Warning: Quit reading now if you don't want spoilers!
The first tale is Mr. Harrigan's Phone, which tells the story of a young boy, Craig, who gets a job helping a neighbor, Mr. Harrigan, with his yard and, later, reading to him. The job doesn't pay much, but Mr. Harrigan gives him greeting cards four times a year with a one-dollar scratch ticket inside each one. Although his father said, "He's a cheapster," Craig likes the old man, especially when those scratches paid off. He thanked Mr. Harrigan by buying him a first-gen iPhone.

Since I'd redesigned this blog at the beginning of 2020, I have been asked multiple times by readers and fellow bloggers where I got the template. Well, here's the answer - its a Sora Template called Sora Ribbon that I purchased for $9.95. A free version can be downloaded. However, I purchased the premium version, so I can make adjustments to fit in with the blog's theme, such as colors, copyright notice, etc.

Good Evening, Everyone!
After self-quarantining for over a month, I finally ventured out to do some shopping over the weekend. Wearing a facemask and gloves, I arrived at Walmart yesterday at 8:30 a.m. Let's just say the place was a madhouse and jammed pack with senior citizens, which is weird, as I thought the store was letting the elderly only shop an hour before my arrival. Nobody was wearing a face mask! You would think the elderly would be the ones wearing facemasks to prevent from being infected by the coronavirus, but that's wasn't the case in my neck of the woods. I did my best to do the six-foot rule, but it was difficult with other people literally running into me. People need to learn how to push a shopping-cart properly!
I spent yesterday morning watching Ultraman X: The Movie (Not Rated; 72 minutes), which will be released on Blu-ray ($19.98; AMAZON * WALMART * BEST BUY) this Tuesday by Mill Creek Entertainment. Also, the movie will be released on a Blu-ray set with Ultraman X: The Complete Series (AMAZON * WALMART * BEST BUY).
