A quiet Friday


Not much to report this evening ... it was a "busy with other things" day. I did work up this week's Friday Block Party challenge -- should have chosen contrastier fabrics, I'm afraid.

Invictus was great! Morgan Freeman portrayed Nelson Mandela as a wise gentle leader. The movie depicted tiny steps toward healing the injured society in South Africa in a positive hopeful manner. I came out of the show feeling uplifted and inspired.

Besides the "message" of the movie, the thing that struck me the most was how brutal rugby is! I'm not familiar with the sport at all and wow -- I had no idea it was that rough. I guess I thought it was more like soccer. Anne, how do you get through watching Sarah play??!!

Anyway, do see Invictus if you have a chance -- I highly recommend it!

Radha, thanks for visiting Spiral! I'd love to see your pictures of our snow, but you're no-reply and I can't get to the link you left. Please email me.
