accounts of yesterday

 It is the earliest morning of the tenth and these are the recollections of the ninth. Visited the studio belonging to the artist and immediately the landlords wife comes to collect the chairs loaned a couple of weeks ago for the party. Help her carry the chairs out, all in order to get rid of her sooner. The fish are in their tank, they look moderately hopeful of food, but that is the artist's business only. They are his fish.

Look at the poster with all the pictures on it. They are not bad, now that there is a certain distance to them. Whilst the work is in progress there are always things that could be done better. It is only afterwards that it can be established that enough things were done well. Buy some trivial groceries afterwards, and do not forget to get the cat food. Ten tins should last for a while.

Spend most of the afternoon cleaning the floor using a large electric scrubber. A great deal of dirt comes away from the floor, as it dries the boards turn very much lighter.

In the later evening start to make test prints. They are generally in order, they just seem a little bit to dark

And now it is the early morning and there is no need for any more accounts of yesterday.
