The Bucket List

We rented this tonight. I really enjoyed it. It did hit close to home at some points. When Morgan Freeman's character described what chemo treatments were like, he hit the nail on the head. Brought back some memories of my infusion treatments and how I felt the 3rd day after - hard to believe the stuff was saving me! Both of the men undergo brain surgery. I was told I wouldn't have to have my head shaved for it, like they did in the movie. Probably did that for the effect. The movie certainly had us laughing at moments and deep in thought at others. I think some of it got to the kids. Again, too close for home in some parts. Not sure what I would put on my bucket list. Maybe I should start one and start doing the things on it. I need to look for the book that was mentioned in the special features. Sounded interesting. I do know how I would answer the 2 questions asked in the movie. How would you answer them?

1. Have you found joy in your life?
2. Have you brought joy into others lives?

And everyone was...

Kung Fu fighting! I loved the movie - Kung Fu Panda. We had a great time with the kids today - shopping for clothes they desperately needed. Saw the movie and then ice cream at Sheridan's. Good day! Now it is time to get seriously thinking about Worlds. Can't believe we leave on Tuesday already! I also can't believe it has been a year since I competed. I hope I make it through my forms and weapons without making too huffing and puffing! Can't wait to have dinner Thursday night at Laurie's house. It will be great to get together with a bunch of TKD ppl from all over away from the tourney.

So many movies...

...that I want to see!  Some that are already out - like Indiana Jones & Prince Caspian.  But more to come this summer like Ku Fu Panda, Don't Mess With The Zohan, and The Happening!
