Workin’

Samhain                                                                     Thanksgiving Moon

Went through several verses of Jason and Medea, brain began to ache.  Stopped.  I have time on Friday to discuss the parts I didn’t get.  Greg says the real way to advance in translating is to read, read, read.  Which means translate, translate, translate.  I can see it, but I have to pace it.  It’s fun, but it’s also hard.

I’ve trimmed back my schedule, only outside the house commitment I have now is the MIA.  And, of course, the Woollies.  Since I finished the Mythology course on Sunday, that means I have almost ten days with very few interruptions.  That means I can focus and work the way I find best, mornings hard at it and afternoons for clean up.

Kate’s sold more of her work to the store in Anoka; she plans to set up an Etsy site with my help and will apply tomorrow, too, to a consignment store situated next to the Red Stag.  She’s having fun.  Energized.  Retirement has been good for her.  I’m glad.
