The readers
are finished and I have today and the weekend off before I
have to start working again. At the very last minute, when
I was just wondering what it might be that I will be doing
to earn money this month, a big lump of work landed in my
inbox the day before yesterday. Ugh - no, I mean, Hooray!
It's warm today and I am exhausted. Could
go back to bed with the fan blowing and just nap the day away.
Anniebeans, L'amo and baby R. are coming down from their hill
top home to have lunch with me and discuss our creative goals
for the coming month. We started this regular meeting idea
as a support thing; to chat about the finer details of working
on your own, celebrate our achievements, check in with our
goals, motivate each other, etc. Usually when we get together
we have a quick catch up on what we've been doing work wise,
then we eat a lot of food and chat endlessly about anything
but work. Our "meetings" have become known as "eatings".
Yesterday I took a trip down to the garden
plot
with Mum and picked armfulls of basil. What with that, and
a quick market visit where I bought some parmesan and a bag
of pine nuts, I am all ready to produce masses of pesto.
Yummo. Pity L'amo had a bad pesto experience
while growing up (apparently his mum made a giant vat full
and they ate it morning, noon and night for months) otherwise
we'd be eating pesto pasta for lunch. Dips and bread it is.
Just as yummy really.
Life is filled with things that I can not
even allude to here. Life is funny like that. Did I just allude?
