Wet Winter Caturday

Today was a wet winter Caturday.  Mum did some chores this morning after a little lie in with me.  I then let her head off to meet with her besties.  They went to see the movie Before Midnight. It is the conclusion to the movie  Before Sunrise    and Before Sunset.  Have you seen them?  They are slightly wordy, romantic drama,  quiet and almost mums favorite movies ever, especially Before Sunrise.  Before Sunrise is made in 1994, and is about Jesse (Ethan Hawke_ a young American travelling on a train, who meets Celine (Julie Delphy).  Sensing the attraction between them, they leave the train and explore Vienna overnight before they depart at sunrise.

In Before sunset,  Jesse is in Paris ten years later on a book tour, his book written about his earlier chance encounter.  Again, he ends up with some time with Celine, but only a few hours and they must part before sunset.  So in Before Midnight we get to meet them again.   Mum very much enjoyed the conclusion to this story and was glad she went to see it.  She can't believe that nine years have slipped by since she saw the last film.

So a cheap asian Chicken noodle dish for dinner, the same one she went to last week as well, a bus ride home, and a visit to the supermarket and she is back home with me.  Mum tapped on the window when she got home and I ran out to greet her.  I got my feast, and mum got the bed all made up for our cosy sleeps tonight.  She has a good pile of books ready to read.  Life is good.

Enjoy your Caturday - do something fun!!!

  4. So pleased your Mum got out, and then was home to make your bed all warm and comfy ..... cos our Wellington Sunday is forecast to be horridably cold and wet.

    We will follow the example of you and your Mum - I'll snuggle up to Zebby Cat in bed and stay there, apart from getting up to get Zeb's meals for him - I know who is in charge here. Hope you both keep warm and dry (and well fed),
