Yesterday was a very exciting day... all mostly related to P's:
Power went out, so we went to town and took a lovely walk. Where, I bought
Paintbrushes! To continue my watercolor work, nothing final done yet, but sketches up at my new art site: http://www.society6.com/ZoeLive... then we came home, and found a really adorable
Puppy! It was so cute! so, we took it in. It whined, wailed, and peed all night, so this morning we returned little Yogi back to the forest, after realizing that right now: we're too busy and too preoccupied to care properly for the little tike. and, we need our sleep.
Also yesterday I got a Phone! not that I recommend you calling it, because it'd probably be expensive, but if you need the number, mom has it (and a few various others, sarah, dan etc); so you can reach me in case of a USA emergency... or an India one, too, I guess.
So today I woke up, and it was really beautiful outside. Really clear, some nice puffy clouds around the caps of the mountains, and I decided I wanted to take a hike. I met some other foreigners along the way, and we took a lovely 4 hour hike to an amazing waterfall. On the way, simone gave me a buzz on my spankin new phone (which is really just her old phone), and I, being a first time trek-and-talker, was a little distracted when the land started to fall out from under my feet. I tumbled down the mountain (mountains are hard, by the way), and bummed out my knee a bit. I was still able to walk home, but it is bruised and swollen and sad.
Now I'm just sitting here doing some work - having some popcorn (simone mis-estimated how many kernals to put in the pan, and we ended up with a kitchen full of popcorn).. and finishing some things before bed. Tomorrow, friends from Delhi arrive (with new watercolor brushes & paper in hand!) and we're planning for a dinner @ the Italian place in town... nice!
Big Love from Mother India,
Z
