Old Age Day by Day September 2, 2013

We had a terrific time at the baseball game yesterday.  Our team won, and the Breast Cancer Awareness Day events were touching.  There were over 400 breast cancer survivors there, making a giant pink ribbon on the field before the game.  I was teary.

Today I looked at my email and a dear friend has bought a house here and is moving back, and I am so excited.  It will be wonderful to have her close again.  And her house closes on the 10th, so pretty soon.  I'm proud we've kept up our relationship long distance, and through the death of her husband, our dear friend as well, and she is, as she says, coming home.

We watched an interesting movie last night, "What Maisie Knew".  I thought it was beautiful and thought-provoking, as was the Henry James book it was based on.  But this film updated to reflect narcissistic parents of a child at risk of neglect, and the people who come to love her.  The child in it is amazing.
