Wonderful movie last night, Jeanne duBarry. Great rendition of life at Versaille under Louis XV, touching love story, study of class and wealth, rigidity and play. The age.
Chapter 8 featured the wrapping, unwrapping, care of, and rewrapping the circumcised penis of our narrator. Some fish were smacked against the floor and then gutted and a poor cat similarly killed to get a souvenir cat's paw talisman. The other characters ambled about the villa and park; the wedding dress being readied for the coming wedding.
Bela deep into another novel by the Spanish writer, Duenas.
Crazy mind continues to speculate wildly about the separation-divorce; theories abound; ignored emotions come up with yarns and scenarios and flashbacks and entwined narrative arcs and threads. The spaghetti of drama heard from a long tunnel or viewed through a periscope, a telescope. Can understand Versaille better than our own family. Thank you history and art. Life itself that tsunami river wave crashing down from the mountains in Nepal wiping out everyone and everything.
Sky did a terrific job repairing the toilet and then sat and talked with us for a while. Wonderful guy. His parents live out in Bridgewater, they came here as hippies (boomers). Blakeley D grew up in DC, St Albans prep (National Cathedral), UPenn and Harvard architecture. Sky's oldest, Wyeth, has gotten big into sailing this summer, day camp at Lake Winnepesaukee.
End of summer week, everything happens. Kim sent a market analysis of homes comparable to ours; prices have flattened and some dropped slightly.
Would I want David to come back in a year or two and join Sky in his plumbing business?
Got a proposal from TLC to work on Casa Alegre. Will call them on Monday to talk with the sale person, Richard Dannenbaum. Had never seen a document come on pandadoc and thought at first it was spam!!
Might be best to go back to one book at a time. Finish Sleepwalking Land first? Or go back and forth?
They move at such different paces.
