Old Age Day by Day June 6, 2012

Yesterday I held my granddaughter's baby sister.  She's perfect.  Chubby and beautiful, and calm and healthy.  They looked like one bonded, happy family together.  Their joy is contagious.  I could feel the weight and feel of her for hours after.  Then we watched "Coriolanus" when I returned, which was quite a switch.  Ralph Fiennes did a terrific job directing and acting in the Shakespeare play.  Vanessa Redgrave was fabulous as his Lady Macbeth type of mother.  Seeing it caused my husband and I to have a long discussion about the psychology of politics and him to read me a critique of the play from his undergraduate book of Shakespeare.  We had fun analyzing the play and film.

Today I'm going to work on two scrapbooks to fill with my granddaughters' art work.  I want to keep it protected, and be able to show them when they visit.  And perhaps I'll walk the dogs.  What a luxurious life I lead!
