Today I am happy
The kids started back at Hogwarts yesterday. It was my middle son’s first day. He was very nervous. I was also very worried – typical mother, I always worry about everything. But my sons both came out of school completely radiant. They had fun. Even though they had prep (homework), nevertheless the teachers were kind, the lessons were interesting, and they got to do things they wouldn’t do at a standard non-Hogwarts school. Like ping pong!
Ping pong is very big in our house. Whenever we get stressed, the family gets together and plays table tennis. I admit my focus gets a bit fuzzy after a couple of glasses of chardonnay, but nevertheless, it is a lot of fun, and the inter-marital ping-pong championships are getting really competitive and mean. Rich is the master of trickery, illusion and spin, and I like to smash low and fast, cutting very close to the line. Ping-pong = life. Our natures are the same.
Funny how divine happiness depends on the small things in life, like breaking off from horrid customer emails for ten minutes frantic ping-pong, or like when your daughter tells you she loves you twenty times a day. So despite a horrendous day-job workload, I skived off today and ran away to a local adventure-farm with my daughter. She played on the trampoline and climbing frames for ages, we chatted, we played, I drank too much coffee and avoided real life for a while.
On the photographic front, we have several shoots this week (which is unusual – why is it all shoots happen at once?), and thus blogging will be sporadic. I am also thinking very hard about this blog. I have plenty to blog about, all frighteningly controversial. I have written the posts, but am hesitating to post them. It may be how I feel, but my inner thoughts aren’t always suitable for a model and customer friendly blog. I don’t want the models to cancel en masse. So you could say that Richard’s art and mine are incompatible at the moment. Dodgy content doesn’t sit well with tasteful photography. And, did I mention that the models would cancel? Kinda limits the art, if you know what I mean.
Righty ho, it’s evening here and it’s time for a violet scented bubble bath, I’m big on bubble baths of varying scents (chocolate is also divine), usually whilst reading heavy science articles about Life Extension. There’s nothing like reading about cute furry mitochondria to get you going, especially when nice smelly bubbles are bursting around your nether regions. Try it. You’ll like it.
Science is sexy, and if you think otherwise, then clearly you haven’t had incredible mind-blowing late night conversations about quantum physics (and subsequent deep physical exploration of those theories) with the right scientist yet. Recommended.
Life is good.

It seems to me that it's time you start a another blog, just for Lin.
Beautiful image. My compliments to Richard.
Please post them Lin.
Wether or not they offend we will always come back, you have that fantastic knack of "getting us in" and keeping us there.
Thanks for the support, guys!
After talking to some models today, it definitely seems that potential new models check us out by reading the blog. This means I have to behave myself!
Will, I'd love to do another blog, but I just don't have the time!
