Movie Tuesday

We saw Saving Mr. Banks today. I thought Tom Hanks was great as Walt Disney, who had been trying to get the rights to the Mary Poppins book for 20 years. The author, P. L. Travers, refused to sign over the rights and despised the kinds of movies Disney made. Mom and I enjoyed the movie, but Dennis was less enthusiastic.

Bead Class

I started an intermediate bead making class last night, leaving the new Downton Abbey half-watched. When I got home, around 9:40, Dennis and I finished watching the program. There will be 8 classes held at night at the Blue Dolphin classroom. Dennis and I took the beginning class a couple of years ago, but didn't really follow up. We do have a bead-making station in the shop in front of the glass shop but we've never used it. I'll be using it now.
