Recuperation journey: Old movies galore

When one doesn't have a lot to do but rest and take care of oneself, one just might find classic movies on TV.

And that's what has happened to me over the past six weeks since having my transplant surgery.

I've especially liked tuning in to the black and white movies of the '30s and '40s. Such a different time and place!

From Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire to Katherine Hepburn, Spencer Tracy, Cary Grant, Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Judy Garland, and so many more too numerous to mention, I've enjoyed their work.

I'm currently watching Fred Astaire tap dance in the musical Swing Time, from 1936. The songs in this movie remind me of my mom!
