Bob Hoskins - Good form, Mr. Smee.



Bob Hoskins
1942-2014


The news (BBC link) was released this morning...very sad, indeed. For me, Bob Hoskins was a great unappreciated actor that I wish I could have had over for dinner. I bet he would have had some great stories to tell!
So...it's that time when every person who can--will make a list of the "best of" for a person we never actually knew, and now never will...and now it's my turn. Here is MY list of my favorite movies/videos with Bob Hoskins...



5. Super Mario Bros. - Mario Mario - I doubt the majority of the world remembers (or wants to remember) this little film. Yeah, the critics really helped this movie bomb; but I kinda liked it. *shrugs*




4. Pink Floyd: The Wall - Rock Manager Guy - Yup, that was him. 



3. Who Framed Roger Rabbit - Eddie Valiant - Sure, we all know this one the best. He's a detective and who helps out the cartoon Roger Rabbit. Very good acting, since there was not actual Roger Rabbit to act with. 




2. Hook - Mr. Smee - "I've just had an apostrophe"! ...ha. Beside Dustin Hoffman as Hook, ..he was brilliant. 




1. Mermaids - Lou Landsky - He played Cher's boyfriend...and pretty much made that movie 70% better just by being there. 




Well, that's that. As Hook would have said...."Good form, Mr. Smee".

Sabi's Accessories for Medication Review 
Firstly, this review is super late, which is NOT the fault of the company, Sabi. I received all my items very quickly and in fantastic packaging. I am late because I've just been overwhelmed!

Second, there are FOUR different products below. So..let's do this one at a time....


#1: Carafe Water Cup - with 2 compartment pill box. 

Carafe Water Cup - with 2 compartment pill box. Super handy, these three 'levels' stack on top of each other. The bottom is a cup, the center holds your pills and the top seals the pills into its compartment.

#2 Daybox Extra Large Weekly Pill Organizer. 



#2 Daybox Extra Large Weekly Pill Organizer. This organizer has a section for each Sunday through Saturday and one with "sabi" on it (the orange lid), each with 3 sections -- all are detachable! This means you can take one day, or two with you and leave the rest behind! 
 This is an over-sized organizer, which is fantastic for the elderly and those who have a large amount of pills to take throughout the day. (dimensions from their website: H: 11 in x W: 4.1 in x D: 1.4 in).

 #3 and #4 - The Holster in regular and grande. 

 
 #3 and #4 - The Holster in regular (shown) and grande. Since these are basically the same item I am only going to discuss this as one ...the only difference it the size and a little compartment at the top (in the grande version). The basic holster measures: H: 3.8 in x W: 1 in x D: 0.9 in, and the grande measures  H: 4.7 in x W: 1.5 in x Depth: 0.9 in. 
The Holster is handy for those who are very busy through the day, or who may need to take their pills at a moments notice. This makes pills easily portable and safely stores in a shirt pocket (or even just a purse, clipped onto the inside).
