I feel free. I have just written a letter to withdraw from my paper this year without academic penalty . If I do it before 4 July no worries.
My brain was just not coping with having to sit down after a day at work and read and thing. I really sympathise with Dave. Did his last assigment go OK?
Now I do not feel guilty doing art. Or reading.
When I knew I had to study and couldn't make my brain work, I stuffed around and did not do much. When I did do a bit of art I felt guilty so consequently I didn't apply myself to much. Most things were time fillers, time wasters.
On the internet I've been looking at calligraphy. Some great art out there and I'll add some links.
Anyway - going to tidy my room so I have some space to make a mess. LOL . Hey may even get enough space to ROFL. Me? with a tidy room?
Never. :)
Poor DH has a bad cold. For the first time he has lost his voice. I bought some soup and crumpets to entice him to eat. He's just got up and having a shower. Just in time for lunch.

mandala
As part of a challenge on WetCanvas.com I have done a mandala.

It represents me, things I like and have done - or some things!

writing Friday Feast
Gosh - is it really so long since I posted? Being off work for a couple of weeks with a bad cold/flu? is no excuse.
Visited one of my favourite blogs - Greenish Lady - and she has a Friday Feast where she answers questions posed and one of the questions was What Colour Pen do you Write with?
I had to answer - loving colour and writing! - Oh I love purple too! I write with black in my scrapbook photo album but I usually use blue on daily writing because purple is harder to come by.
In my journal I aften use pen and ink and then I can do purple, brown, red, green, what ever.
One colour all the time is depressing
Any way, I thought I would join in the Friday feast to write at least once a week!
So it's Saturday - close enough:)

If you could live on another continent for 1 year, which one would you choose? I would pick Europe. If I had that chance I would have enough money presumably to travel around it. I really loved England and would love to explore that more and paint. I loved the German people but there is so much more of Europe I want to see. The old houses, the country, the villages.

On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being highest), how much do you know about the history of your country?
Now how do you measure this? I know the backbone and major dates. Some names of primeministers and other Important People. Having lived here 60 years, that part I know.
7 out of 10 becuase the feel of it is more important than actual dates.

Finish this sentence: Love is… Aaargh - one sentence? Love is all encompassing.

Have you ever been in or near a tornado? No. I've seen a little one starting but we don't have many in NZ.
The one I remember most is 1991 when we were in South Africa and phoned home to our daughter who was baby-sitting our house. She was all shaky as a tornado had just gone past and shaken the whole house. The main damage was 5 miles away - fortunately only trees - but she was by herself and it scared her. We timed our call well.
