The Tudors

Thank goodness for Netflix. I don't subscribe to movie channels (been there, done that), so I'm renting the first season of Showtime's "The Tudors." That Henry VIII was quite a rascal. He's currently trying to rid himself of wife #1, Catharine of Aragon, and acquire wife #2, Anne Boleyn. Oh, to be young, rich, powerful and tyrannical in nature. The series takes some dramatic liberties, but it's fun to watch. Very well done production-wise and the cast includes two of my fave Brits, Jeremy Northam and James Frain. I have 3 more episodes to go and Season 2 just started on Showtime, so I'll have to wait awhile for Season 2 on DVD.

I've been doing lots of yard work and my back hurts today. Going to work outside again today, but I'll do some lighter work. I've been walking the dogs daily and Bella's bum leg is bothering her. I carried her while walking Stella yesterday. Bella hates to miss a walk, even if she's being carried! We're hoping for rain. It's forecast, but right now it's partly sunny and 68 degrees. We need rain while the Midwest is swimming in it, unfortunately.

I neglected to mention after I returned from Pennsylvania that I went to my former church on Easter Sunday. The folks there have been incredibly supportive to me, sending cards, calling and most important, PRAYING FOR ME. I appreciate this fine group of people, I really do. They've always been there for me when I've needed them most. Thank you!!
