I’ve had a marvelously ‘successful’ day today…I taught the boys about Christopher Columbus amongst other things, sold 6 pairs of earrings, used up the stump of a cucumber in the fridge on a sandwich (this is possibly the first time I’ve gotten through a whole cucumber before it rotted in the fridge), cleaned, swept and vacuumed the lounge area and kitchen, sorted out some bits and pieces needing sorting, remade a necklace for someone, cooked a healthy meal for supper which included two vegetables, baked a batch of cookies, got two loads of washing (which are now dry) folded and packed away, caught up with the ironing, and prepared some photos to be printed when my cartridge arrives (hopefully) tomorrow. So I’m feeling very much on top of things now.
The boys are really getting into photography now as well. They have pretty much unrestricted access to our old digital compact and enjoy finding things to photograph. Usually their pictures are blurred or over or under exposed, but sometimes they come up with interesting compositions, particularly self-portraits. We’re teaching them bits and pieces along the way about the rule of thirds, and horizon placement, and so on. Perhaps one day they’ll be missionaries employed by National Geographic! (Sadly Aaron deleted the photo they took of themselves…would have been fun to see the result.)
