A Record of My Day - May 6th, 2008
Barking dogs woke me up at 5:30 which was very annoying because I didn't want to wake up until 6.
Woke my daughter Isabella up, showered. Had coffee, an orange and bagel.
Raced out the door by 7:25 with Isabella, her large cardboard box rumshop art project she has laboured over for the past week, picked up the two boys next door and drove to school. Dropped the kids off and went to work - Div of Fine Art, BCC
Arrived by 8:00 - only me and the guards and a few students. Portfolio exhibition opens in 2 days so things are chaotic - lots of painting, construction, moving around, sending out invitations (still!!). Also interviewed incoming students for next year. Read through College Art Assoc. call for papers - deadline is Friday!! I've been telling myself to look at this for the past month!
Picked Isabella up after work and took her home. Had a pita sandwich with cheese and vegies. Wrote a draft for the CAA proposal.
7 pm - Went to Artist's Club at Lancaster House - first time I had gone. Artist in residence Natalie Buongiorno was speaking about her work - very nice portraits of Lancaster crew - Roger Chubb, VIrginia etc, and a self-portrait - with embroidered snakes - representing the seven deadly sins. Then Eva Campbell gave a painting demonstration - portrait painting. She had asked me to model for the session - she did a great job, chatted the whole way through the session - good fun.
Drove Eva home, got home about 10:30. Chatted with Jessica (eldest daughter) on the computer for 20 minutes, did some work, wrote my diary!!
Can't wait to get into bed!

here is my diary entry for 6th. I write one day behind so its mostly Monday really. 600 words seem very optimistic, This took me 3 hours to type out.
ACA
6. 5. 08 Tuesday
Two sheep, loosed, lost, wander in the lawn in front . The black-belly sheep are very elegant.
Maddy ( my landlady) says Barbara's funeral in London is 11.30 tomorrow. Adam, Bonny and Liesha are flying up tonight. Kathleen ( my helper) says people spend 5 minutes in silence , if they can’t go to the funeral. Never heard of that . It will be 6.30am here though.
Sarah and Coral took me to Waterfront Cafe. We parked on a near empty wharf So I’d be near, while all the road up to the vicious pink Liquidation Centre, was full of cars.
Philip Nanton launched a CD of monologues called Island voices. These performed by Patrick Foster, Kaye Foster, Lauralin Hutchinson, and Phillip and a young black actor, Simon Alleyne, all amazing especially Patrick.
It started with two on after hurricane Ivan . I remember seeing him in a wet but intact Grenada airport on the Friday. He was teaching at the offshore University and all the American students were waiting to get out too. "They should have stayed and helped" said Jean. But by then food and water were getting short and I anyway felt guilty. Really I was afraid I'd never get home.
Bought a CD $40.
Saw Therese, (Hadchity director of Zemicon Gallery)
the raku wall plaque in the Juliana Innes exhibition
that Id decided I now wanted and Emailed her in the morning had been sold on the closed day at the gallery.
Finished the Monoprints at last for Barbadiana. Did number 5 "the foot ", the left foot. Sarah came to pay rent earlier & sang "Someday your prince will come" from the film Cinderella. Doesn't work well when written down , its prints/prince. She likes puns.
