i'm shattered! lots of gardening in the front yard today, in preparation for the upcoming bulk rubbish collection. max slept over at my parents last night, so no early wake-ups from him today (woot!) and seeing as cleo slept so wonderfully - until 7am! - i was full of energy on waking, and started gardening at 730am!
aaron & i watched 'gomorrah' at the flicks last night - an italian film about the 'underbelly' of naples.... very bleak but good.
funny story: the girl at the ticket counter was VERY insistent that we reconsider our movie selection, saying it was particularly violent and the loud / frequent gunfire might upset cleo. i told her we'd take the chance, and leave if the volume became 'too much'. still, she persevered with talking us out of the movie, and offered us complimentary passes if we should decide to leave the cinema early. by this stage, i was thinking =hmmmm... but clearly, we've been de-sensitized by 'underbelly' as it was fiiiine.
aaron's grandfather (90yo) had what was suspected to be a massive heart attack on thursday; now we know the 'turn' was actually a result of very low blood pressure. pa is in a pretty bad state, not eating nor drinking... very frail and - i think - ready to go. it's hard to watch.
