my (ambitious) house plans

I wish to build a house that is both circular and spiraled.
I have added a third floor,
I have not drawn the upper portion (the third floor)
But it is a observation deck, with glass 1/2 walls, and a bed and bench.
A telescope could be kept up there.
Or it could just be a "alone room" (a small study??)
Ps: the blue line on the ground floor represents a 3/4 riverrock stone wall.

I found this in the back of a cool old book
Check it out!!
It's a Hoot!!!
You'll have to click on it to read the text
(notice it's not signed by anyone!!)

TV

people (me in paticular) watch tv too much!!
Wouldn't THIS be cool as a living art piece??
be careful of broken glass,don't reach in and try to water from the front.
(the back has a latch and hinges, so open the tv from the back to care for the art inside!!)

mother's day

my wonderful mother

Illustrator pen tool... I command thee...
I just finished a stylized portrait of
MY WONDERFUL MOTHER!!!

maternal awe

I just saw a photo of my mum....
Hashi Meltzer.
Not only it she a great artist, and awesomely inspiring.....
But she has lost so much weight...She looks fantastic.
Wow.....

Fragmented mind
Another kind
Of song I sing today.

To me belong
The strains to strong
But still they fade away.....


Well I just finished attempting to read my doctors reports....
My mother sent them to me.
those reports really put the nail in the coffin...don't they??
How am I supposed to fight a whole bunch of official sounding test results??
What is written in those reports, those test results.....THAT IS NOT ME!!
HMMmmmmm
It seems to put to bed any ideas I had about being highly intelligent....
It's just a bit sad....

Oh self pity,
Is so pretty.
Help me sing,
this little ditty.

Hehehe

parent teacher interveiws...

I have a parent teacher interview this afternoon. I hate those things.
I have a feeling that Jai "lost" his behaviour book at the begining of last week for a reason. I am a little worried..... Jai's not a big fan of authority....
And he argues with adults if he thinks he is right. So I am loathe to go.
It should be ok though.
On another note, Jai had a serious infection in his foreskin....Due to AHHH!!! not washing it or shaking it properly!!!! I was a bit worried about it, but I took him to the docs and I have some antibiotics that started clearing it up straight away. I gave him his third dose of it this morning and it's looking much better....phew!!!
I am prpbably going to bring home a shitload of books this afternoon, as I am doing the afternoon shift till 2:45. Maybe I should go in early....I'll go in at 11 thirty to check the roster. I Love working there!!
I'll check back later to tell you how Im going...and what books I brought home.

A new job!!

I got a charity job last week!!
It's in the next street over and it's at a lifeline book shop called The Book Nook.
I worked Wednesday morning last week, and I am going to work Monday afternoon.
I had so much fun organizing things and talking to the people that work there.
I sorted out all the childrens books on Wednesday. Tomorrow, I have decided That I am going to sort out all the magizenes and the australian authors section. I just had so much fun!! I feel great!!
I brought home eleven books though...I see this habit is not going to stop.....
Im so pleased to be working again.....it's been 8 years!!
