It’s The Arts
Today was hard to get through. So very hot. My head still aching. And now swimming too. Sea-sick. Hard to focus and concentrate. No energy. Burning up. It’s a small miracle that I made it through the day.
It wasn’t made easier by the fact that I had lunch with everyone. Normally I have it by myself. We’ve made a plan that I’m gradually going to eat lunch upstairs in our cafeteria and eventually along with the others. But today the cafeteria was closed for renovations. So no costumers. Instead there was a buffet for people who worked there. And I joined them. That was good. But stressing too. Especially since I wasn’t feeling too well. But I got through it, so that’s a positive thing.
And after work I went for a dosage of my own private prozac.
Aw. Silly lamb and silly boy. Just to prove that they make me smile.
My camera had a smudge. Didn’t notice it. Sorry bout that.
Might I direct your attention to that boy’s cap? Dude, sweet. I wish I had a cap like that. Or more precisely, I wish it was socially acceptable to wear a cap like that when you’re grown up.
A cute little boy. Asked me questions about the lambs and wanted to feed them. And he said that they felt like teddy bears. Hehe. The soft wool. Adorable.
Hmm. When is a lamb too old to be called a lamb? Maybe they are sheep by now. But they’re still lambs to me. For a while yet.
Spot the goat.
Mads spots me. He is still in isolation. Although I think he should be let out soon now. There’s space enough. And I’m sure he’s learned his lesson.
(he’s just refusing to act accordingly)
Pernille asked me if I wanted to have an exhibition of my pictures at the playground. And by exhibition I mean… hanging them up on their noticeboards. Nothing fancy. But still nice. I said yes of course. She didn’t say anything about how many or any rules or themes. I’ll just pick a bunch and get them printed at a photo store. I have never actually had any of my pictures properly printed. That will be nice.
If any of you guys have suggestions for pictures that ought to be included then feel free to drop me a note. The goats are going to be featured prominently, I’m afraid that’s unavoidable. But I’ll try to get all the animals and some kids and adults too. Exciting! Maybe I’ll take the show on the road. You think the French are tired of that Mona Lisa sketch they have? Maybe they can clear some space for Mathilde’s lovely outlook.
Four days till vacation and Tina Dickow. Tick tock.

You and the lamb are so cute together. What kind of sheep is that? It has different looking wool than our sheep.
Congrats on the picture exhibition. I like the one with all the goats together looking up in the barn, climbing on each other. I think you had a caption about “how many clowns to fit in a car” or how many goats to fit in a picture. And maybe one with the horse who liked to sit on the fence and knock it down. That was funny! And the baby lambs, when they look like they’re smiling. Put Pernille and some of the workers (including YOU) photos in the exhibit, too.
So now you are part of the “lunch flock”. Just think of those people as goats and you’re joining them for lunch/hay. Not sure what the therapist would make of that advice, but oh well. Whatever works!

Petzac!
I like all your photos but I think quite a few of Mathilde are in order. And photos showing the goats’ climbing ability.

Maile – I will definitely have a good deal of Magnethe pics. I don’t know if I’ll make an exact time line, but it’s a good idea and I’ll probably have something close to it. Rainbow kisses to you!
Deb – I’m not sure what kind of sheep it is. I’m thinking “cutey wutey” isn’t an offical species.
Your picture suggestions are duly noted. And I think there’s a good chance they’ll all be in there. Very good.
Katherine – Oh boy! It is so hot that my brain is melting. I couldn’t figure out what you meant by Petzac.. I even googled it and found only links to some french mineral water stuff. Haha. But I get it, finally. Maybe I can patent petzac and make a fortune.
Debbie – Actually I like turning my back on them. Sort of inviting them to climb up. Hehe. Sometimes they take the bait.
Clare – Of course I’ll see it. What am I, blind? I have very thick glasses and can see many things, like your beauty etcetera. I will suck up till the day I die.

Phil – Hah, I’ll let you know. But don’t expect anything grand, it’s really nothing more than hanging some photos on a noticeboard. Still cool though!
