Pack to Unpack
Unpacking seems to be such a stressful idea that it seems worthy of a business to pack and then unpack in the same way. Its like you flew your house on Aladdin Carpet.
Farm vacation
Getting an experience of living on a farm and doing everything by yourself.
Learnt of a colleague who learnt how to get a water connection from the main by doing it on the farm.

Drawing From life
I didnt imagine
that my model
of a Peregrine Falcon
whom I thought to be a
Hawk
would not stay still
Quickly I learnt
that Drawing from Life
involves drawing not
one portrait
but many portraits
each filled as the
bird moves to
offer a different profile
Most of the body
remains the same
you get that part
right quick
when a little ruffled
or bored
the wings might span out
But the head
moves
the left eye soon
becomes the right
The neck line
moves like
percentile graphs
********************
During this attempt, looking closely at the eyes, I thought of how Jester looked like a baby. He was imprinted by a human.

A-Z of Embroidery Stitches
Embroidery Floss with Organizer Storage Box - BASEIN 100%Cotton Friendship Bracelets Floss String Embroidery Thread 69 Pcs (50 Colors)
I didnt know that you could use ribbons for all the lovely rose stitches.
We used to make the concertina rose with palm leaves at a convent school.
Now I remember the blanket stitch we learnt in SUPW class but didnt recognise it even though I saw it on the blankets.

Buildings to see
Inside the worlds largest airplane factory
some airplane factories are so large that clouds once formed inside them
When you learn that
a phenomenon is not unique
that it follows like a twin
that on the front
behooves the back
that it is part of a system
and is not by itself
Vehicle assembly building

Homeless
I am at the top in between two rocks. Many thousand feet below are sparse number of people. Soon its many people on horses fighting. In no time, a small pool is filled with them. One of them looks that there are people up here. It looks like a normal busy street. There were families hanging their clothes on ropes at unreachable heights on the multi-storeys where they use a stick to manipulate the rope before hanging clothes on it. It was time to leave. We left with what we had In emergency situation, I took somebody's sandals which I thought might be big for me, but were not. We all left. Earlier , in the neighbourhood my friend K was giving keynote lectures for her company. She had long hair. My dad realised he had about 4 bags of fruits. The last one was green grapes. and said that he had about 12K Rs. Before leaving, we had lost about half the people. some were burning in the plaster mummies of Mt Vesuvius shape and others only heads on the floor. We dont know who did it. When we are standing in a building, with many arches, front exposed, a jeep comes by 3 to 4 times. we try to stand in such a way that the cuboid columns will give us protection from fire. Then a men are two come out of it and impress upon us how the buildings around are huge newspaper ones and that we should leave.
6.30.15 dream. last night I saw the poem in the de Mezzo Il mare about the plaster mummies of Mt Vesuvius.
