London Bridge is Falling Down...
I am in my(re)creative mood again - so many things to do so little time! I found a good art workshop teaching the still life painting technique of Chardin and Cezanne among other painters. And teachers are from the Corcoran. I also became a Duck as a mom of a Duckling - registered Lara to another 8 week swimming session, she successfully graduated from the aquatot class. A mom told me about the new class at a recreation center close to our house, and now we take our ducklings there to swim. Today we danced in circle to the tune of London Bridge is Falling Down, Falling down, my fair lady....By we I mean 8 femmes plus the ducklings.
To get to the rec center, I have to drive trough the misty cloak of sky high trees clad in the hues of late fall. Believe me when I say that this morning I was driving in an oil painting of trees- every single dead leaf in its crystal silence, fallen tree trunk, unpredictable sharp turn on the narrow asphalt road made me realize how beautiful our planet is and how lucky I am to be here. I could be in Tralfamador, for all I know, and who wants to be there?:)
Also did I mention I am reading the Second Sex by Simone Beauvoir, just mind blowing - can't believe she wrote it half a century ago. An alpha must read.

She is a gorgeous little witch!
:-) The title made me momentarily think that the three of you are perhaps planning a London trip.
I seem to have abandoned my blog - for two reasons: 1) Facebook, a new toy for the last couple of weeks. I am already bored though. 2) A dissertation to submit! The latter deserted all my enthusiasm. So, I think I'll hibernate, except enjoying your posts.
I was one of your most loyal readers, and I hope you will not abandon your blog altogether. In fact, I am usually scrambling for a few spare minutes to update my own blog - time yourself, say I will be done in 5 minutes - and stop writing once your time is up. :)
i think hibernation is epidemic this year. i only manage to blog once a month or so myself. that said, it's good to know that you're both there and stay connected, and little lara is growing up to be a sassy-lady-slash-duckling-slash-witch.
