somewhere in the street.

 Last night was spent helping the artist put his work together. He does not like drills and dowels, but concedes that both are useful. Despite not being a carpenter, it is still possible to help out. Both surfaces on the two things that need to be glued are planed and a hole for a dowel drilled, a marker is placed, the second part is pressed into place, the marker removed and the second hole is drilled. With the dowel in place the two parts fit perfectly well.

The artist has to go to school to teach his pupils in the morning. The two part will probably be glued later today. Most likely in the evening, around about midnight.

It is a quarter to nine in the morning now, the cat has been fed and its human has had breakfast. Everything seems to be in order. It is time for the second cup of coffee.

Today has its plans. There is a sculpture to be photographed in the studio. the son wants  help tidying his room and there is an exhibition opening in the evening.

For now it is time to get dressed and to clear up those breakfast things. The street outside is busy, a large truck has just stopped outside the door. It is there to deliver new furniture somewhere in the street.
