Gosh, we’re losing our mojo here, 21 degrees now and freezing tomorrow.\u00a0 This is the third week of January, the coldest week of the year.<\/p>\n
Don’t know whether it’s my aging brain or the difficulty of the material, but I’ve spent some prime time on infinitives and indirect statements, while still trying to get the participles straight.\u00a0 It’s fun and it’s getting me where I want to go, but I feel slow, web-footed at times.\u00a0 On the other hand I am on Chapter 25, only 17 more to go.\u00a0 After that, hey, only a few thousand more verses to go and I’ll have one book translated.<\/p>\n
A bit more on the Latin tomorrow, then I’m diving into Titian material.\u00a0 I’ve already finished the Grove Dictionary of Art entry on him, wandered around a few websites, but I’m looking to get medieval all over him, or Renaissance, rather.\u00a0 The Renaissance and its step child, the enlightenment, are two favorite areas of study for me, so I look forward to leaning into the Titian material.<\/p>\n
Well, yeah.\u00a0 I do have to get groceries, too.\u00a0 Always some fussy thing like getting fed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
