Croak. Monday morning – the first one after a very intense load of work in schools and also my first day off in ages. I am struggling to get going. I say day off, but actually that just means no paid work – studio and some food shopping instead. I hate the way the studio always comes between domestic chores.
I feel pretty bruised (head and mind) after helping mum move house at the weekend and working so much and all I feel like doing is sitting drinking tea and watching studio Ghibli films, but then I would loathe myself for being lazy.
Doing some visiting lecturing at Sheffield Hallum on Thursday, which I am really looking forward to – not been there for years so will see some of the new galleries. Also like hearing about students’ work a lot – I plan to soak up some of that fresh-faced enthusiasm and steal it back to Liverpool.
Also packing up a few things into boxes and trying to have a clear out pre-move at the end of the year. Hate living in such clutter and am convinced this is part of my problem!
