Lotus 20181110



Went out first thing and started to take pictures of the new lotus flower that will bloom soon.  I love the above picture where I think the condensation inside the camera enhanced the effect!

Unfortunately it didn’t work with any of the other pictures I took.  I’ve since been finding out how to stop condensation on the inside of the camera.  Funny how it never really happened in the UK where there are more contrasts 0f temperature than here, although I think the high humidity here doesn’t help.

Sound 20181109



Busy day which included a session at Udavi school.  Finding things for them to grow is difficult as they don’t want to grow what will grow during the monsoon! I will be glad when the tomato season starts because that is what they want to grow.

This picture is of the room where I went to a sound meditation on Wednesday.  I enjoy it but its something else I do and then find it hard to get to sleep.

Water and Fire 20181108



Went to yoga today but any kolam outside would have been washed away in the rain.  Instead Grace did her kolam inside on the table.

I still feel very tired but couldn’t sleep because my muscles felt as if they were on fire after the yoga.

Weed free! 20181107



Yesterday when I got a bit bored I weeded the rings near my house.  Every time I go out my door I look at them and feel pleased!

My mouth feels a lot better so I think cleaning my teeth a lot and taking vitamin B are doing the trick.  My leg is slowly getting better but still a hole there and a bit sore.  I’m sure the day off yesterday has helped as well.

Diwali 20181106



This is a picture I got today from Emma of the children with their sparklers that they had for Guy Fawkes night yesterday.  I love the sheer delight and magic on Elsie’s face.  Sam is holding the sparkler how he had been taught by the Fire Service who apparently visited the school last week.  Very proper and safe.

Had a very restful day and our own fireworks in the evening.

Tired 20181105



Very pleased to have the grass around my house cut.  Its so frustrating not being able to do jobs like that because of my leg.

My mouth is burning on the inside and I think it may be a sign I am rather run down.  This morning I woke up early and then went straight back to sleep and so was late for work! I think the dog bite, the vaccinations and all the work has been a bit much for me.

Micro greens 20181104



Finished off the video this morning and although I don’t think it is perfect and I’m happy with how the idea comes across.  Have started doing the graphic design for the labels etc needed for our micro green kit.

I tried to take a very close up picture of micro greens but this is the closest I could get without the picture being out of focus.  I think I will have to get someone with a proper camera to do it.
