After the hustle and bustle of Christmas Day which included catering for 9 people hubby and |I decided to have a few lazy days. Day 2 of lazy has been bliss. I have been incredibly idle but refuse to feel guilty about it ! I had a bit of an emotional day yesterday, Carl bought me 'The Lion King' on DVD (which I asked for) but I'd forgotten it made me cry. I used to watch it with my son and daughter no 1 when they were very small and just after my Gran died. The part where Simba sees his father in the clouds gets me everytime. I had just about got over that and pulled myself together when 'Becoming Jane' was on. Now this is daft, I knew it would make me cry, because it always does, but I sat and watched it anyway - Doh !
No sad films today, but we did watch 'Rise of the Planet of The Apes' which was very, very thought provoking and a brilliant film with a lesson which SHOUDd be heeded, for us all.
Off out to look at Sofas tomorrow, not sure if I am looking forward to it or not but the fresh air will be good at least.
About Me
- Rae Argent
- A fiction writer and mum to three great kids, also lucky enough to be married to the man of my dreams. In spite of that mushy comment I do not write flowery romance - I like a nice helping of real life grit in my work. I have a Diploma in Literature & Creative Writing from The Open University and remain a member of the wonderful Watford Writers, despite moving on several times. I am a big fan of Swanwick Writers Summer School which has taught me a great deal and where I have made many great friends. I have yet to reach the dizzy heights of becoming a published superstar but will continue to send my work out into the world.
