Old Age Day by Day September 14, 2013

I was so sick last night I agreed to watch the last film of Lord of the Rings, though with a caveat that we fast forward the parts where Frodo and Sam are slogging up the mountain.  And we fast forwarded through some of the 7 endings.  Good lord, I'm exhausted when we get to the end.  I like Legolas and the the beasties and the music.  It's an amazing film, but interminable.  All the battling is so manly, I'm just not made of the right material for Lord of the Rings.

This morning I picked up our two bags of mail from the week we were away, since they neglected to restart the mail delivery yesterday.  The bags weighed about 20 pounds and it was mostly junk.  But I was happy to receive birthday cards and a few catalogs I like to peruse.  What a waste of trees!

My husband is going up to the cabin to check on things.  I'm holding down the fort and the dogs.  I think my cold is a bit better today.  Resting is the ticket, I guess.

I'm going to call a few friends and organize a bit at home.
