Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills. |
I hope people understand that when I'm traveling I just don't have the time to: 1. Call. I had to explain to my aunt today that I'll call when I can. 2. Write. I feel guilty so I should make a list of addresses (beg for the ones I lost...). 3. Read. Ditto. Can't sit and read everybody's blogs ...as much as I'd like to. 4. Return every message. Even the twitter on facebook is time consuming. 5. Post ALL my pictures. I already have taken over 1 thousand in just two weeks. Me: Accomplished some things: 1. lightened my backpack by sending a bag of books and clothes to Sam's. 2. got to writer's workshop. They thought my prose was fine. 3. milk, chocolate milk... 4. ONE cup of coffee. I NEED ONE ...not none, not many. 5. sent off a postcard. I'm doing okay financially. Emotionally and mentally? Better than the first week. Where am I going tomorrow? No idea! I'll decide in the morning. It doesn't matter much unless there's a festival to attend or if a friend invites me. 70 more days ...can do a lot in 70 days. Spring 2013? Somewhere in Holland for Queen's Day, the 30th of April, sounds good. Might work well with a visit to France or England ...or Norway in May. A friend is looking into New Zealand for me, but that will be a separate trip. West Africa is still on the radar for November 2013 and that may include France as well. 38.173 |
