<br />
When I completely focus myself on artistic pursuits, I am happy with the product, but then my children feel I need to give them more attention.<br />
<br />
When I am compleyly immersed in my PhD, I like what I am writing, but my body craves yoga. <br />
<br />
When I don't work and the children are at school and I do yoga, my body is so happy, but I haven't earned an income. <br />
<br />
I understand the principle of balance, what I struggle with is the principle of good enough. Thats the best I can do at mommy, yoga, work, PhD, wife, friend cos that all the time I got. Be grateful. Move forward. <br />
<br />
I still jusge my art/ writing/ work/ mothering as if I had the luxury of dedicated time wheras I should judge it within its context. <br />
<br />
I need to remember that next time my kids moan that I did not fetch them or I get feedback my writing is not what it should be etc etc. I need to say to myself OK but its good enough for striving for the juggle.Hihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08595966567005008856noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8346750364789605306.post-45812728569530082952011-02-25T20:19:00.000+02:002011-02-25T20:19:51.251+02:00DESIGN INDABAI only popped in for an hour or so as I thought I'd be back at least 2 more times. But I got home and the doc has organized a week-end away! Everything packed and about to leave, but just wanted to say:<br />
<br />
I saw Angie pants from Lucky Pony blog!<br />
<br />
I managed a necklace at the Skermunkil sale and Maritijie your ceramics are gourgeous!<br />
<br />
Lauren Fowlers stand look amazing I want to ask her all about an M necklace, but she was busy being mobbed by adoring fans!<br />
<br />
Genevieve Motley I nearly made it to you and then got a call to come home!<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><strong>This is the review:</strong></span></div><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">All 3 were fantastic with a special thumbs up for Bussman. She summarizes SO WELL American and European students who want to save Africa but only for a year or 2 while it fits in with their getting a big UN. EU atc job (I know they are not ALL like that) yet somehow despite being British herself manages a sense of irony. She moves from interviewing Ashton Kutcher in Hollywood to debriefing captured child soldiers and makes one laugh and cry at different points. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">No one writes Kalk Bay as well as Dowling who actually lives there plus captures English teacher/ student / acting world SO well. </span><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><strong>I have the best book club in the Southern Hemisphere</strong>.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Needless to say, they are all deep and smart and stretch me to read facinating books.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Here's my current list.<br />
<br />
1. The doc. He believes in goodnight and good morning kisses; makes a PERFECT cup of coffee and a remarkable tomato soup; he is good at putting the littlies to bed. Most important he loves me for what I am good at rather than resents what I am not.<br />
2. Leila. She is accurate; pure-ist; creative; funny and doesn't miss anything<br />
3. Kiki. She is whimsical; hugely loving and generous; passionate and friendly<br />
4. I have a job which is meaningful and helps make the world a better place. It is not about materialism.<br />
5. The friends I can count on 1 hand who can call me and I them at 3am no matter what<br />
6. Blogland and tweeples<br />
7. AIDS treatment is getting better and better<br />
8. My beloved delicious soft gourgeous and divine cat Giji<br />
9. Green spaces in the city and Cape Town<br />
10.

<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">1. Untying the teeniest tiniest knots in the teeniest Polly Pocket dolls' hair - about 2 years of practice before they are 5 (you only have 5 mins).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2. Finding a needle in a haystack or a Polly Pocket shoe the size of a pin head in a MESSY house when it could be anywhere. The training for this must be done with a stop watch to improve your time, while still keeping calm and there must be a soundtrack of increasingly louder screaming as you search for it. You can't practice this in your 2 room flat, you need a big space to practice in like the Cape Town Convention Centre and it could be anywhere.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">3. To practice not going red in the shopping centre when something embarrassing happens like your kid says, "Mom why don't you dance around to your cell phone music ringing like you do at home? "Or telling a complete stranger that the car guard was angry with mom because he didn't think the 2 rand she gave him was enough: You need to wear totally see through clothes and have someone drench you. Cold water is best as you can practice looking non plussed when you are actually take -your- breath -away- shocked. And, it is great practice not to feel embarrassed about things being spilled on the floor.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">4. To practice not being embarrassed about plates or glasses breaking in public eateries, go to a restaurant with your partner and throw a couple of plates on the floor and see how they treat you and charm your way through it on 3 hours sleep.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">5. Get into bed with nice laundered crisp white sheets and duvet. Get your partner to wake you at 1am; 3 am; 5 am and pour half a bottle of milk on your sheets and pillow each time and see if you change the sheets each time or just put a towel on it and change the sheets in the morning. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">6. Run a bath and fill it with squeezy bath toys. Get your partner to sing " The wheels on the bus go round and round" no less than 10 times while you try and wash your hair, brush your teeth, exfoliate your face in 15 mins. Your partner must not let you have 1 mins piece while all this is going on especially if you need the toilet during this exercise. It is very important that the song be sung over and over again. If you beg for mercy, ensure your partner makes the singing gets louder and louder. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">7. You need to get dressed for work in the morning INCLUDING applying eye liner and sun screen without getting your work clothes messy while having a baby orangutan around your neck the entire time, who is eating a honey and peanut butter sandwich. Special deal with Monkey World on Orangutan hire if you quote the name of this blog.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">8. This is a Memory test that I will give you. There are 30 kids in the class. You need to not only remember the children's names, but also the names of the moms, the nannies, the grannies and the au pairs who sometimes fetch them from day care and work out a clever way to save them all in your cell phone/ BB/ I -phone.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">9. Get your dog or cat to eat broccoli AND peas instead of meat or pellets repeatedly every day for 2 years.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">10. Make your cat or dog get into a drawer (like a bed) over and over again ten times a night without getting angry. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But what you won’t need to practice is being grateful despite all this. It will come naturally.</span>Hihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08595966567005008856noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8346750364789605306.post-69989096033019258822011-01-14T12:11:00.000+02:002011-01-14T12:11:51.325+02:00antique photo boothHave you checked out this cool site that turns your photos into antique looking shots?<br />
