Around midnight last night, there was a brief thunderstorm, but during the day today, there was sunshine...finally! More rain is predicted for this weekend, though.
The swimming pool was really chilly this morning. There are only four more days of water aerobics left before the May 15 to June 15 break. I hope that on at least one of those days, the pool will be warm.
We didn't accomplish much today. At 3:30, Mother and I went to visit our friends, and we were there for a couple of hours...longer than we meant to stay. But our friend's niece and her daughter dropped by to bring our friend a Mother's Day gift, and their car was parked behind mine, so I was unable to get out of the driveway. I thought it would seem impolite to ask the niece to move her car, so we just waited for her to get up to leave, and then we followed suit.
We usually serve supper at 5 p.m., but tonight it was 6:30 before we could get it on the table. We had boiled chicken (prepared before we left for our visit), served with a choice of leftover mashed potatoes or leftover rice, gravy, and green beans. Bless leftovers.
Afterwards, Hubbie and I, in the mood for period movies, watched two tonight. The first was "Elizabeth: The Golden Age," a 2007 PG-13 film starring Cate Blanchett, which traces the queen's relationship with Sir Walter Raleigh, and England's defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588.
The second film was "The Last Legion," also a 2007 PG-13 film, starring Colin Firth and Ben Kingsley, which is the story of the last emperor of Rome, a 12-year-old boy and a descendant of Julius Caesar.
