My little figure skater

My daughter Tholakele (7) is a figure skater. Earlier this month, she participated in her first competition, the Gauteng Provincials. She did well. But results aside, I´m just happy seeing her on the ice smiling. She loves skating and that´s all that matters.

Good luck kiss from mom.
Skate-on.
Spiral.
The end.

My life in a day

Why are you ignoring us? Pic by Big Art For Little Kids
I have been neglecting my pandas for a while. I´m trying to focus on getting back to full-time writing. I wish I needed less sleep. I wish could work 20 hours a day. I wish I didn´t start rubbing my eyes at 8pm.
Here are some things I try to/want to cram into my daily life:
1. Being a mom, always and forever.
2. Write more and better books.
3. Become a figure skating star in the age group +45.
4. Paint pandas.
5. Paint my children.
6. Paint Johannesburg, the absolutely fascinating city I live in.
7. Keep my 101 journals up-dated.
8. Crochet. Knit. Work with clay.
9. Read. And then read some more.
10. Loose 10 kg´s.
11.Take the dogs for walks, sing to the cockatiel, run with the hamster and - oh! - don´t let the bonsai tree die from drought.
12. Have cappuccinos with my dear friends.
13. Speak Zulu.
14. Blog.
15. Learn something new. Every day.
16. And lastly, but not the least, love my husband.

Minor things such as cleaning, I´ll do another day.
