Had a nice day. Ray and Sharon came down with their son Wayne. We did some repair on the roof, chicken pen, and a few other odds and ends. Sharon and I left for the flea market and thrift stores for a little while and Ray and Wayne visited friends. Sharon made me an awesome lamp for my birthday present (early). She took a gallon jar, drilled a hole in the bottom for the cord. Placed a flicker candlelight in the jar with silk flowers and greenery. Covered the jar lid with gingham material and raffati with wooden stars hanging down. It is soooo pretty and looks perfect in my livingroom! I did a little dusting and cleaning and then sat down to watch " The Butterfly". What a good movie! Its a French film about the true meaning of friendship starring Michel Serrault and Claire Bouanich. A young girl befriends and old age gentleman and helps him in his collection of butterflies. Its all in French but has subtitles so I was able to enjoy the beautiful French language and understand what the movie was about.
