The Friday Five

What haven’t you framed yet?

A sweet little painting I bought in Senegal two years ago. I work on maternal and newborn health, and food security/water issues, so the semi-abstract painting of a pregnant woman carrying a jug of water seemed appropriate. Plus the painter was very nice.


What haven’t you thrown out yet?

Oh so many things. This week in particular, it's a box of lawnmower wheels I acquired in order to set up a course for hound racing. Sadly, my lazy scent hound refused to consider a game designed for siht hounds and the local passion for playing this game has fizzled. Also, my dog died several years ago. I discovered them on a shelf in the storage room last week but forgot to put them into the trash.


What haven’t you repaired yet?

Today it's a duvet cover that is too wide for its duvet. Plus a curtain that I have trimmed but not yet hemmed. I would get on with it, but one of my cats is sleeping on top of the fabric - as they do.

Whom haven’t you called or emailed yet?

My parents. They live in town and I do a terrible job of keeping in touch.


What haven’t you seen yet?

The new production of Cinderella by Ballet Jorgen. They'll be in town in few weeks, so I need to get some tickets soon.
