Everything Fred – Part 491

4 December 2024

Tonight was movie night with Chris and Tucker. We watched Babette’s Feast, a 1980’s art film about a French chef who escaped the French Revolution to a place off of Jutland. She wins the French lottery of 10,000 francs and makes a feast for two spinster sisters to honor their father. It’s slow moving and the objective of the movie is not apparent until the closing scene.

I remember sitting through this movie years ago and then going out to eat with a friend where we tried to do the movie justice at a restaurant. It’s not everyone’s taste but I like the film.

I did some computer work this afternoon and some house cleaning. It kept me busy and I didn’t get a nap in. I’ll probably sleep pretty well after two glasses of wine. I shared some of the chocolates from See’s that Wade brought me with Chris. These are really the very best chocolates I’ve eaten. Wade always brings me a two pound box when he visits.

The weather is what we refer to as Chamber of Commerce weather. It’s a great mix of cool temps in the morning and only in the low 80’s during the day. I managed a 1.4 mile walk along Riverland today and – wait for it – did yoga today! I think I may be getting back to normal – as normal as it gets for me.

Tomorrow is another iron infusion (one more to go after this one) and then just checkups with the oncologist and the surgeon.

Saturday, Barbara and I are headed to Secret Garden for dinner. It should be perfect weather sitting outside along the intercostal.

Stay tuned!

After 34 years in the classroom and lab teaching biology, I'm ready to get back to traveling and camping and hiking. It's been too long of a break. I miss the outdoors and you can follow my wanderings on this blog.
