Old Age Day by Day February 28, 2011

The last day of the month! Time has indeed flown! I had a happy busy weekend, going to the Buddhist study group, having dinner at our son's house, shopping with our daughter-in-law and daughter for birthday clothes and watching the Oscars. Now it's time to play a little catch-up with real life. I have a date with bleach and a shower this morning. Then a lot of plant trimming. The day is beautiful but cold. I saw this morning in a email that Cara Black's new mystery is coming out, and that is cause for joy. In the meantime I'm reading a book my older daughter recommended - Wolf Hall - which won the Booker prize in 2009. It's exciting from the beginning - a fictionalized account of Thomas Cromwell in England.

The Oscars were maybe too predictable, even though I can't argue the results. I wanted "Biutiful" to win for foreign film, and Bardem for actor, but I do love Colin Firth. The gowns were scrumptious, but I missed Meryl Streep's huge fashion mistakes and anything unpredictable. Still, it's wonderful eye candy. Now to the eye candy that is the guest shower.
