Catch-up
Sir Viggo
The Danish-American actor Viggo Mortensen was Monday in audience at the Royal Palace, where he said nicely thank you Knight's Cross by Queen Margrethe II awarded him back in April on the occasion of Queen Margrethe's 70th birthday.
Viggo Mortensen was an audience just five days after his 52nd birthday. His visit was of short duration, since he only visited Denmark in that game to say thanks.
The actor grew up in both the United States, Argentina and Denmark. His big break came hustler in 2001 when he got the role of Aragon in the film trilogy of Lord of the Rings.
[Have to love google translate. "His big break came hustler"? Must get out Danish-Danish and Danish-English dictionaries and work out the real translation. *G*]
Busy busy busy. Work is 5 or 6 nights a week. Putting in 10-20 hours/week on second job. Bookshop is closed while I do inventory and update listings. Am going through stuff, looking at what might be eBay-able. Winter mending rounds starting- I mend and patch my clothes- never a fashion queen, I have even less interest in spending money on clothes at the moment as every penny saved IS a penny earned toward my Anat Baniel Method Practitioner courses. Have plans to use fabric from things that can't be mended to make things a là repurposing. I used to be pretty good at this- shirts and jeans and broken jewelry into bags and pillow cases. Hip ones, too.
Have been listening to the Stieg Larsson Millennium Trilogy books on audiobooks, as well as Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games trilogy, and watching Damages, Rubicon, Dexter, True Blood, and various and sundry movies on either at work, or on NetFlix streaming or Hulu. (Though the purpose of all of these is to 'tell me a story and put me to sleep', or to be on in the background [yay subtitles!] while I'm at work.
I see so many of you having hard times this Fall/Spring [Northern/Southern Hemisphere] with health, jobs, money, family- Blessings on you each, and all, from here.
