Mike and Antonia flew off to the US on Sunday, for three whole weeks.  Meanwhile, I am in Zanskar.  Not, completely for real, more sort of spiritually.  This year I am a work at home homeschooler.  That means I have a book to translate, about a journey to Zanskar, and this is the three weeks in which I have to do it!

I also plan to spring clean the house from top to bottom, devise an entire science curriculum for my daughter, who seems to be growing in to that, go to the gym once a day, and catch up on all the R&R I don’t get usually.  Yeah, right!

So far I have caught up on some sleep, locked myself out of the house in my pyjamas at dusk, attempted to wash the parasol cover which is still just as filthy as before, and started reading Feynman’s Lectures on Physics.  I am up to date on the Zanskar project though.
