big fat monday....

hello, it is indeed big fat monday - and to try and combat it - and the fact that i have barely moved for two whole days due to an extra-ordinarily large amount of animation prep work - i have walked to my yoga class (about 2.5miles away), did my yoga, and then walked home again (another 2.5miles), however, it is still monday......

so, the last week has compromised mainly of cleaning up after my wee kitty as she has been super poorly and sickly - really stinky and bad stuff, poor wee soul!!! i have not had much of a chance to seize the rudder and steer myself into any brilliantly creative inlets or cruise by a research and development island unfortunately - bums!

i did show Dave my drawings for miss monkey and he seems happy so far with the direction they are going, but i have decided to hang fire doing anymore until the poem is finished, as the story my change and then the drawings will be redundant, but i have really enjoyed doing them, so i'm looking forward to getting the finished version from Dave when he has it!!!

the other creative endeavour i've been involved in this week is working with 2 primary 7 classes in kilmarnock to make a series of animations based around the novel, carry's war - the final part of the class contact time was on friday there, when i filmed and sound recorded all the groups (there's 10 of them!!!) performing their chapters live beside a kamishabai theatre {this is what i have been working on preping all the animation images for editing on top of the live performance for, over the past two days - phew! it really is an extra-ordinarily huge amount of work - mainly because there was hardly any class time with the children and so i have had to do all of the animation work on behalf of the children...a very odd situation....}

anyway, i look forward this week to friday mainly, as i have a meeting with the most excellently talented and darn-right beautiful c:o/minx girls - yeah! bring it on! (oooo, i did do my homework ages ago, but my computer crashed...can't remember if i ever went back and re-did it - best check before friday!)

have a good week
