Here is Remy on the Jolly Jumper. She is really starting to enjoy this. We keep it at Granny's because there isn't room at Remy's. I took 8 pictures trying to get one of her smiling, but by the time the camera focuses and takes the picture, the smile has disappeared in favour of the "what the heck is that?" look.
This morning I got a copy of a letter from the city ordering the owners of the block we are renting our studio from to comply with the inspector's orders or they will shut us down. Apparently they still have not shown that the construction meets the specs of the building bylaw. The real estate agent and the architect keep assuring us it is only a formality and we should go ahead with business as usual.
That's easy for them to say - they aren't the ones that will be slapped with a fine if caught doing business without a licence. But at this point we are too far in to go back without losing two months' rent. So.......we are going to trust these people know what they are talking about. Big leap of faith!!!
I went to see The Reader. Powerful movie. I shed a few tears. Another one that makes one think. What would I do if I were in that situation?
There is road resurfacing going on just outside my block. It's pretty noisy during the day, of course. But, because they moved the bus terminus it has been much quieter at night. I slept well last night. I wish they would move the terminus permanently.
One day, someone showed me a glass of water that was half full. And he said, "Is it half full or half empty?" So I drank the water. No more problem. ~Alexander Jodorowsky
