SCRIBBLE

The day before yesterday I was in Chicago consulting with a young woman about a play she is producing for February.

Any talk about theatre sets me on fire as this is my passion. How did I forget that? I thought you might like to see my scribble picture as we brainstormed ideas. The joke is that this mad piece of work makes perfect sense to me. This is the order and prop placement for Nine scenes of the Little Prince.

Four ladders will be used. As planets and other components of the play. I changed so much so fast the young woman was spinning with excitement as she saw the play open up and begin to breathe. My drawing makes me laugh. I thought it might give you a chuckle. A tiny slice of brain on paper. ( What an horrible image but you know what I mean), and it makes perfect sense to me. This piece of paper encapsulates a whole play. When I have finished today’s assignment I will transcribe this into words.

The garden where I shower.

The sprouts have grown out of their big containers into big yoghurt pots. You can see one of the bigger containers in the top of this image. I only use them on phase two of the six day process now. I find the little pots more convenient ( though don’t use cut off water jugs – those are too malleable and we have to cut the container off the sprouts). Big yoghurt pots work fine and I have people saving them for me. And the pot holds two servings exactly.

The sprouts are such an important component of the hogs winter feed and smell delicious.

Heidi is visiting from the city and worked on cleaning out the little glass house yesterday. She had company. Today she will sow a bed of winter greens.

The cats are usually never allowed in the glasshouse so they were terribly well behaved.

After chores I will finish another component of my assignment. With your help from yesterday I will teach to the English necessary for giving and receiving directions. I created a map of my pretend school and its surroundings and if it were a real school with real students I would really be looking forward to teaching this unit. Today I will write a simple treasure hunt!

Good morning. After doing my assignment then driving through the countryside to collect a couple of months worth of feed I will keep working on manure removal. ( charming!) The weather is amazing at the moment. Sunny and clear and warm. It is easy to get a lot done in weather like this.

Have a great day.
