Its been a while since Ive blogged. I have enrolled for a Feature Writing course and am on my third module. I find it very, very interesting. I trust that my blogs will improve as I learn more. I am really fired up - i think i'll do my final project on and interview with an ex ballet dancer who started an unusual school of dance and exercise and a young man who chose photography for a career. It has to be on two creative jobs. I hope that both will be happy to be interviewed by me.
It was my mum's 89th birthday on 22nd. When she woke up she said that she hadn't slept very well because it was going to be her birthday and she didnt think she would live to 89.
She really has seen the world change. It is extremely interesting to hear her talking about ageing. It sort of creeps up on your body. I think I'm going to write down some of the things she says. Ill share them with you at a later stage. Here she is - Petronella Lillian Foster - known to all as Nen. We took her to Simonstown for
brunch - it was a perfect day. lovely sunshine but cool. the sea was like glass.
I'm off to do the dishes and make a cuppa. speak to you soon
