Sunday, August 3d

10:30am: This is Bridget. I just spoke w/ Elizabeth. She and June spent the night and tell me that Chris had a pretty good night and slept (earlier in the week, she had troubled, fitful sleep and would wake a little disoriented and nervous, so a good night is a welcome blessing)~she slept well when Mags and I stayed overnight Saturday too.

Angelina and Genevieve (My brother Peter's 2 girls) got to visit yesterday morning for an hour and Chris was very sweet w/ them and happy to be able to see them. She woke at 5am and asked about them right off (they were coming at 9a). She wanted to make sure their breakfeast was ready and wanted us to get soft fluffy robes for all of us so she could have her masseur (an elusive person named Paul) give everyone massages~I didn't quite put all that together until after the girls left as Chris is not always clear...but when you think about it, you can piece her thoughts together. It was CLASSIC Christine~taking care of all and making sure of a good time...

And of course, Chris had life's words of wisdom to share with the girls: "You don't have to mind everyone's business~You just have to mind your own." (...which is kinda' funny when you realize that Chris certainly made it her business to mind everyone else's business...and never hesitated to weigh in w/ her 2 cents when she had concerns...but I guess that's HER job as a Matriarch...!)

An additional note~
