Old Age Day by Day February 15, 2012

I'm heading to the dermatologist this morning to check out the topography of my skin.  There is always something new and different growing.  The joys of being fair skinned.  I do this every 3 months now.  I've had several friends die from melanoma, so I'm careful to get checked.  Then I need to make an appointment for a mammogram and bone density, and the merry go round spins.

I'm going to enjoy this crisp, cold sunny day.  I've already walked the dogs.  So any more walking I do today will not involve pee mail or snarling strange dogs or picking up poop.  I will be able to pause to see the flowers and sky. 

And I'm going with a friend's daughter to see the Oscar nominated short animated films.  They are always interesting. 

Last night my husband and I romantically ate huge baked potatoes, rib eye steaks, grilled asparagus and salad, washed down with a bottle of champagne, while we watched "Captain Blood" with Errol Flynn and Olivia de Haviland.  Irish rebels, Nasty British, the Carribean slave trade, pirates - it had it all.  And Basil Rathbone as a French pirate.  It was a lot of fun, and now I've had all my calories for the week, so I'm set.
