<br />
It's been forever, since I've been here. Right now we are all in one way or another, involve with each other, in the entire world, since the Covid-19 pandemic is everywhere, changing lives forever.<br />
<br />
I've been at home with my son since March 17, so almost 2 weeks now and counting, government announced suspension of classes up to April 19, though I heard they already planned to extended to April 30, the health minister has said in some of his conferences that things might not be normal until October.<br />
<br />
So, that's scary, but I still have the economical support of my dad, and that should cover food, and I have enough saved for services. I think I might be able to even cover rent for 2-3 months, so things don't look so dark for us as they are for some many around the world. I think people might suffer hunger, here many people have no regular income.<br />
<br />
My other concern is the water, right from the first week water started to lack at my flat, this has been a problem in the past, so for at least half a day every day there is no running water. My washer broke just a few weeks ago, and there is light in the kitchen or the toilet so we have to use lamps and Christmas lights, which is charming for little while but gets old, this has been like this for maybe 6 months. And there is also the summer problem of the shower not flushing, meaning water does not goes away, which arrived early this year, before spring, these are thing that we are somewhat use to.<br />
<br />
Also, the apartment is very small, only one bedroom, living room, bathroom and kitchen, the toilet inside the bedroom. Not ideal situation to live with a teenager, bur still we have to count our selves lucky.<br />
<br />
We have been creating videos for our new YouTube channel, with some songs from the music classes we teach and also we are planning to give general information to homeschooling kids.<br />
<br />
It's all in Spanish, but you can <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCs5uq2ZAW8n9AWd21EGE1Kw?view_as=subscriber">go check it out</a>.<br />
<br />
So right now I guess it's all, I didn't mean to be so gloomy, but I'll share happier things next time.<br />
<br />
P.S. I'm starting to do stopmotion, and I think is so cute, it's about a knitted female rabbit, you'll see.<br />

I missed both.<br />
Sewing is so many things, all very positive; relaxing, creating sharing.<br />
Blogging too, is so warm and nice, the connection that we get from reading about other people (mostly moms) lives, struggles and triumphs, and then commenting, feeling identified or cheering up them, or just learning amazing or practical things, is very different from what I feel I get on Instagram or Facebook. Here it all feels slower, kinder.<br />
<br />
I wrote before about the group of moms and babies that I teach, music and English. Two weeks ago, they requested a sewing workshop. I have done this before, but haven't for a few years. One of the main ideas was to make menstrual pads out of the discarded cloth diapers of their babies, certainly a very Earth-friendly idea.<br />

The result was very good and we had a great time.<br />
<br />
Then, yesterday, I wanted to go out to get vegetables but I didn't wanted to bring a purse. I have entered a phase of my life were I don't want to carry purses, but the badly or non existent pockets on women's jeans is making it difficult, I have been meaning to do something about it but couldn't find the time, finally, yesterday I made some time.<br />

I'm happy with the result, even when there is room to improve on the somehow improvised pattern, I was afraid that I was going to look like a clown, but I don't feel like that (even if I do look like one) and I loved the little patches I added. I plan to improve or add pockets in all my pants, it's amazing, and feminist, I think.La Chilihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05399113500946212730noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5850569987653694428.post-17714643381202648742019-03-11T23:11:00.002-07:002019-03-11T23:53:53.214-07:00Babies are amazingIt has been almost four year since I last wrote here, except for my very intimate previous post which, funny enough, made reference to that last time also, 2015.<br />
<br />
I have been doing lots of stuff, as I usually do, even when I feel more tired than ever. On 2015 I was admitted in a public music school to study violin, it has been a bumpy road, but it has led me to the wonderful project that I now have teaching babies to play music.<br />
<br />
It started with another class I teach, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/lasorugasinglesparabebes/">English for babies</a>, another sort of unusual project. My very close friend Karime asked me to teach her daughter English, because, somehow, I was very successful teaching my son (he scores C1 on Cambridge placement tests), and so I jumped on the path of making that a reality, wondering how to teach English to babies. We got more and more mom to come and bring their babies, and they were all very happy and then Karime requested a music class.<br />
<br />
Music is an area in which I don't feel very confident, but my son is an advance music student, even when he is only twelve, and so I plan it with him.<br />
<br />
I remember setting the time for the class for a week later and still not knowing what as I going to do. I didn't wanted to be just a baby class "early stimulation" as baby classes are often called here, I have done that and I can do it well, but I wanted something different.<br />
<br />
Finally, the day before the class I saw it clearly, if had to be a Suzuki Method violin class. I have participated in many, as a student, next to kids, and I believe in many concepts from this methodology, being one of the most important "Everybody can", that is what convinced me to purchase a violin when I was 32 years old, and if I could, they most certainly could.<br />

I was amazed, on the first class they were able to hold their violins and bows almost perfect, at least for babies if this age. I used a toy violin that I adjusted to work more or lees like a proper one, it was a Christmas gift for my son when he was tree, his stepdad painted for him.<br />
<br />
The class started on October 2018, and has <a href="https://www.facebook.com/losviolincitosdelamilpa">continued growing</a>, with more and more students, they are really amazing, because babies that are loved are at their full potential, I believe.<br />

Some days I feel like I'm not going to make it, I feel that this all sounds very lame and as if I'm making it up, just like I have been told so many times, that is all in my mind. But I'm afraid, this feels way too familiar, last time I came out of it, I don't want to got through it again, I feel that I can't.<br />
I talked to some friends but I don't think I was able to communicate efficiently.<br />
<br />
Four years ago, in 2015, my parthner asked me to marry him, he suggested it as a practical matter, but still I was overjoyed, I have always dreamt this, since 2007 when our relationship started.<br />
<br />
I need to explain that it was never quite a regular relationship. He came to our lives when my baby was 15 months old, he was kind and wanted to help me, also to be with me, but he was not going to be my boyfriend, he clarify. I have never understand exactly what is the deal, at times he wants to expend most of his free time with us, he would display his affection towards me publicly and privately, but he can also be very mean. We have been togheter on and off for years, even we lived indifferent countries for three years in the years of 2010-2013, even so, he would always stayed in touch, always treating me like much more than a friend and as a father for my boy. He is controlling and difficult, but in the past four years he has been more committed as a parent.<br />
<br />
So, he suggested we should marry, my heart raced, and just a few days later I found out that he was in a very serious relationship with a girl. He did not considered this a fault, since he had established that our relationship should be open (I have never wanted things to be this way and I have said it). Many times over the years I have tried to separate his fatherly relationship with my son -which has some positive aspects- from his relashionship with me, but he ends up always making him self at home in my home and I end up falling for him, again and again.<br />
<br />
I should mention that I have no family in the country I live and that the biological parental family of my son was never involved, his dad left us when I was pregnant and his parents (middle-high class) bullyied me to try and coherce me to abort. That means that the economical, practical and affective ties to my partner are strong, he does not have a relationship with his own immediate family, so I hardly know them and there is no relationship with them or with his friends, he hardly ever introduce me to any and never invites me out to do anything as a couple, all our interaction is always family centered. We use to watch movies, play music, play board games, go to parks or just hang in his house or mine.<br />
<br />
When he proposed and then I found out about the girlfriend I felt into a deep depression, I was feeling suicide impulses that I could not control, I told him that I was in really bad shape that I needed help, he just said, think about your kid, don't do that, but that didn't helped.<br />
One day a decided to make some little party and a friend of a friend came and really liked me, so he briefly courted me and I decide to try and have a relationship, but he was going trough very dark stuff himself and so, a couple of months later the relationship ended.<br />
I was destroyed and I seeked professional help, went to a therapist for a few months until she left the clinic. It was if great help at first but then she convinced me to get in touch again with my ex partner so I could take an acting job, this was not very positive for me.<br />
<br />
Since then my partner and I have been togheter at times and not. A few weeks ago I started to notice him all smilley when checking his text messages, and changing with me, still affectionate but not the same. He did no effort to hide this and acussed me of emotional blackmailing him if I looked sad about it. Several times I asked him if he was in a relationship and he eluded me.<br />
<br />
Finally he sort of let me know that he was going out of the city for the weekend, I try to keep calm, but eventually loose it and started texting him asking about the relationship and he ended up accepting and saying that he would explain on Monday. I decided that I didn't need that, that I just couldn't accept this terms, so I blocked him.<br />
<br />
It's been a week and I have started to feel that's my mental state in deterioting, like at times I'm not in controlo all the sadness and there are no positive or necessary quemicals in my brain, I don't want to get as bad as in 2015, and I have consider therapy but right now we can't afford it. I homeschool my kid and with no family around to help I can't take formal jobs because I have to take care of him 24/7.<br />
To make things worse, just as in 2015, the relationship with my son (almost a teenager), is deteriorating.<br />
<br />
I wish to hear female voices of emphaty, mi ex conviced me that it was silly to expect exclusive relationships and that if I'm sad if just because I choose to suffer.La Chilihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05399113500946212730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5850569987653694428.post-2897098803344133032015-06-06T22:43:00.000-07:002019-03-12T00:42:32.885-07:00This year Harry Potter it is<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This year has been very tireing, or somehow I have been more tired than ever. Or maybe, I'm just starting to be normal, because I always had like an endless flow of energy, but as 2015 kick in I was done.<br />
<br />
Whether I homeschooled or worked or studied, but I couldn't bring myself to do all at once as I have been doing for many years.<br />
<br />
Even the so long expected birthday of my son almost caught me empty handed. I have always made his birthdays into big crafty, cooking and artsy productions but this time I just could not get around it. Besides I had to celebrated much earlier this year.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
On Friday I stared to feel down, and then spend half Saturday crying alone at home. I'm having a lot of changes on my life and some of them are very welcomed and bring happiness but also confusion as well as the starting of the puberty of my son. He had requested a Star Wars party but then restarted the reading of Harry Potter and the Chamber of the Secrets, and decided to change the theme at the last minute, the party is in two weeks.<br />
<br />
At first I was stressed about it, but then it turn out that it was just what I needed to get in motion again. And so at the end of the afternoon I started to <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/centrolamilpa/harry-potter-party/">pin</a> ideas and download printables and such, and when I went to meet Itzcóatl we both were happy and excited. We went to get some materials and stayed up until late doing wands and I started to knit scarves for the kids. I think it's going to be great, even when it only will be a small party.La Chilihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05399113500946212730noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5850569987653694428.post-85542143031745995762015-04-16T12:19:00.000-07:002015-04-16T12:19:29.355-07:00A day out with mom :: a funny piece, I hope<i>I was asked to write a funny piece for my English class and here it is.</i><br />
<br /><div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
A day out with mom</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It has been a long time since we
don’t go out. I’ve been tired and sad, but I owe him, my beautiful son, he
deserves a day out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
And so I got the discount tickets
a week ago, we will be going out in a little trip to Taxco this Sunday, I’m
nervous and excited, and so tired. I tried to get in bed early last night, but
I had tons of work as usual. So I only got a few hours of sleep and we have to
wake up very early, which is not my thing at all. starting days early, but here
we go. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I hear the alarm and I stay for
another ten minutes as it would make a great difference. I finally crawl about
of bed and get into the shower. I get dress and wake my son up and run to the
kitchen to make a breakfast to go. We are almost ready and on time but fifteen
minutes later we are no ready yet and now we are late.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The little letters of the tickets
said that if you are not at the <i>Angel de la Independencia</i><span style="font-style: normal;"> at 7:00 am sharp the shuttle will leave, waiting for
no one. It’s 6:55 and we are in the street and catch a cab. We arrive at the </span><i>Angel</i><span style="font-style: normal;"> at 7:05. There is at least 6 different tourist buses
or shuttles and I start to ask around, people send me from one to another but
every driver says that this is not ours. I started to feel very sad and
frustrated, I can see the disappointment on my child eyes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Suddenly one shuttle arrives and
some guys on the street start to yell at us, “This is yours!, Get in fast!” We
run full of hope. As I talk to the driver he seems confused. But my tickets are
valid, so he says that we can get in. The problem is there is no seats
available, we will have to sit on the floor all the way to the tollbooth, were
we will meet the other shuttle, that should have room for us.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
So we accommodate ourselves
inside the best we can and smile. As the city passes by trough the windows I
can appreciate the light of the morning as it unfolds with his cold breeze. I
start to feel drowsy because of the lack of sleep, but I’m feeling so proud of
have done it. In the end I’m not such a bad parent. My kid is so happy. We ate
our yogurt with granola and have a little chat with the other travelers.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
When we reach the border of the
city there is a lot of pine trees and a few poor houses. The shuttle parks and
call the other driver, that is on it’s way, 10 minutes away. We are aloud to go
to the restrooms, so we both go. There are little unpleasant but at least not
dirty. As I close the door of mine it hits me. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The whole phone conversation with
the travel agency. When I called three days ago. Now I remember that the lady
told me that I was confirming my tickets too late, and that all seats were
taken, but that we could go next week. I start to feel the blood on my cheeks,
we are already on the edge of the city, what are we supposed to do now?, and
how I’m going to face the drivers who can’t be blame. I feel so ashamed of
accepting my mistake that I just decide to play along my point but to get back
to the city.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So I get back, I insist a little on the fact that my tickets
are real, and then I say I understand there has been some kind of mistake, and
that it wont be convenient for us to ride all the way to Taxco if there is no
seats and no meals paid for us, and that I’ll call the office and fix it on
Monday. The drivers explain me how to take a bus back into the city and left
with meaningful looks to each other. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
My son is more amused at my
embarrassment than disappointed by the experience. I make him promise not to
tell anyone. And then I take him to a nice place for breakfast and we spend the
day out nicely, a family Sunday, you may say.</div>

Unfortunately some of that sewing happened while taking care of my son who got sick with a throat infection that hasn't got away yet, but he is much better now, and I'm grateful for that.<br />
<br />
I used my technique of rubber stamps on fabric to make some cuties, like the bike bonnet and the snowflake dress, I love tho use cute buttons too.<br />

I'm very happy because this year I did finish the Advent Calendar on time, I reuse the little paper rolls tree I did last year. But this time I manage to sew all the felt ornaments and I sealed on the back too, <br />

I think it looks like a honeycomb.I also includede little notes for
family activites such as ºWe will go to any museum you chose today",
and others that just say "I love you" or "I admire you".</div>

<br />I use the ornaments as milestones or reminders of family memories. So there is one from the year he started to play piano or take chess lessons, and from birthdays too, like the year we made one themed on fruits or cars.</div>

I do not care about for video games, not even nostalgia ones. I didn't like them when I was a teenager, and I like them even less as a mom.<br />
<br />
But when my friend V called me asking ideas for his boyfriend birthday gifts I made a quick search and sent her some links, within a few hours she was so excited that asked me for lessons, so she could make all that she intend and could also learn how to use the sewing machine.<br />
<br />

I accepted and we spent two days working on it, a bookmark, a cushion and a god strap, I mus say that it all came very nicely, and even I got excited and decided to use the the eraser stamps that I had engrave to make a tote to put all the gifts together.<br />
<br />
This is the result.<br />

<br />
We visited the fair with a larger budget than last year and it was such a pleasure, we love books.<br />
<br />
<br />
I made my son notice that the fair has the same age as me, and he told me that it was created on the year I was born for me, since I'm the queen of books, this made me smile.<br />
<br />
I felt very proud that the one book my son chose was <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1409508587/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=1409508587&linkCode=as2&tag=cortadeestat-20&linkId=SS2EKNAVG5OWBKOJ%22%3EWorld%20History%20Encyclopedia%3C/a%3E%3Cimg%20src=%22http://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=cortadeestat-20&l=as2&o=1&a=1409508587%22%20width=%221%22%20height=%221%22%20border=%220%22%20alt=%22%22%20style=%22border:none%20!important;%20margin:0px%20!important;%22%20/%3E">The Usborne Enciclopedia of world History</a>, not only for his interest in History, wich I think is pretty cool, but because he actually can read it. I have to admit that when the third grade curriculum arrived, I totally freak out. the content was to advance for him, English is his second language. I figure that it was just an obstacle to tackle, but still. And we started little by little, and suddenly he leap a mile on his understanding of English, it's so funny how mothering always give you the same lesson, over and over, and we fail to learn it. Progress will occur in its time, there is not point on rush it or get stress, you just have to enjoy live and keep up. So, you understand that when I saw him fascinated by this book (we spend a good 20 minutes on this stand) and reading it, I understood I had to make the effort to purchase it, even it is pricey.<br />
<br />
I also got some discounted books, a few that my son loved even when he didn't ask for them, and some other I thought I could use in my baby classes, I want to start some Story Time in English here in Mexico City next year, and some Reading Promoting Sessions too, next year.<br />

It is about a fox who stills a hen. All the friends of the hen are running across the land trying to catch him, but when they finally do, the hen and fox reveal they are in love, it is very very cute, I recommend it a lot.<br />

I have been so busy. We are so delay on homeschooling work, but it's just that with my kid learning three musical instruments plus theater and chess classes, and my work at the shop, we are kind of full. But instead of freaking out I'll just try to relax, and let things flow.<br />
<br />
In the middle of all of this I have only had time to knit some small blankets for my kid's stuffed animals. This one is supposed to be a tree.<br />
<br />
My very little reading is the first number of the National Geographic History Encyclopedia that is at the magazine stands every two weeks and we are collecting. I get distracted and I have to re read, but I really want to build some knowledge about history, and the pictures are amazing.<br />
<br />
We have been watching Downton Abey and so I got this recipe book, which is great, even when I can't eat most of what is there for the gluten and dairy, but it's full historic details that I love to read.<br />

The night I made the napkins I also cut some pillows I have to make for an order, and I end up with a few stripes of fabric of the same width, and I decided to try my hand at a log cabin patch, not really knowing very well how to, but it came up nice in the end, I think, I added son corners to make it more pretty, I always get very worry about how to combine colors right on a quilt, and that even stops me from doing it.<br />

I haven't made the pillow for this one yet, I made all my pillows because I like to use cotton fabric and I think all pillows that sale on stores are expensive. <br />

I designed two different wings based on macaw pictures.<br />
<br />
I also made some bags as gift wrapping because I just can't use paper for that, at least I know that if I make a fabric bag it probably will be used and definitively wouldn't end on the trash at the end of the party.<br />
<br />
So this is the, the girls liked them very much, and that's the most important thing.<br />

At least not like this. But eight is so much, so big, so not a baby for so far, that it kind of hurts that he grows.<br />
<br />
I get the feeling that I can notice a lot of differences. That he really looks older, that he is stopping being a small child to become more like, I don't know, him, and I love to see it, to be present in this transformation, but I do get that, as he puts it: he growing into his own person, into his own ideas apart from me, becoming himself, and I feel proud and kind of sad.<br />

I haven't ever made wings on purple and I found out that I had to use a different method than in the other ones, which is longer. I also want to get a wood frame for doing them, because as I work now it means to have four of the total of 5 chairs of my house out of use.<br />

I enjoy very much this work, and I'm planning on doing more of this and less of the work outside, I love to give classes and I really bond with my students, babies and pregnant couples, but it really isn't working for us as a family for different reasons.<br />
<br />
One of them is that salary is very short, plus I'm asked to give free classes and this is proving to be too exhausting for my kid and me, also, I don't get to have weekend time with him, and now we have a lot of work starting third grade on homeschooling, so I had to choose.<br />
<br />
I'm also working on some eating sets, such as the one I made years ago for my kid to take to school but with different fabrics. <br />

When ever I can I sew something for my kid when I have been sewing a lot for work. I have ordered some pretty fabrics to make pillows for the birthday party, since we don't have enough chairs, but they didn't arrived on time, they arrived today and are beautiful, I hope to get to make the pillows soon, but tonight I made one dinosaur one for my not so little one.<br />

We had fun, she brought her niece, who played with my kid and they both had a great time.<br />
<br />
I know that she didn't had money and I didn't ask for payment, she did brought some groceries, and it feels very nice to help friends, but sometime I think I should just say no, because I don't organize my priorities well and I end up not eating enough or loosing time we should have used on homeschooling or even just bonding, I don't know...<br />

The excitement of getting and opening the boxes felt like a party.<br />
<br />
And I know, is only July, but we started already, and we are very happy, taking it a little slow at the beginning, getting used to it again.<br />
<br />
I'm a little nervous, for teaching this year in English, since it is our secod language, but it seams that my boy has a better level than I thought, he understands a lot and is learning more all the time.<br />

So, my kid's birthday is this Sunday, and I'm oh so far from done with all the crafting, but I keep making progress. Of course time to read is not on the picture right now, nor knitting, but I did finish the <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/nahuatlv/andreas-shawl">shawl</a> I talked about last week, just that I don't have foamy block to block it. I do love it, I hope my gran would like it, but for me I would make the large size, this one is medium.<br />

Last night I worked on the mini bow and arrows pouches, and the swords, axes and hammers, all in felt, so kids could not hurt them selves. I made the blade on the swords one side grey and the other side blue, so they can play turning them when the orcs are near.<br />

I give you Smaug, the fabric piñata, answering to the situation of not having were to brake a piñata in my house. First I must say that here in Mexico piñatas are great tradition and we don't see it as an act of violence, it's just tradition, I understand to some of you may not feel very comfortable about beating and breaking an animal figure, maybe this option could be good for you too, even when it was not why I did it. I really didn't have were to hang it and my floor is wood so I was afraid that it could be damaged, or for an accident with the hitting pole, so I developed this.</div>

I decided to make a dragon with a zipper, and two loops on the back, thinking that a pair of adults on a chair could hang it high, and after the kids attack it with the q-tips arrows we can roll the zipper and all the candy and toys will fall.</div>

I have been trying to develop a nice bag for the arrows and mini bow, and this is what I came up with, all the arrows outside hold by elastic and a little elastic to attach it to the risk. I'm not all convinced with this solution but I'm running out of time, because I had to move the day a week before because if not it would be the same day than the Fifa Cup Finale, and I know kids and parents would have their minds else were, so I still have 11 pouches to go along with many other things.</div>

Here is a short explanation of how I did the piñata. I cut many stripes to make the dragon scales and then I sew them up, I wish I had had only yellow to cover it all, but this is the fabric I have available at the time, I just wish it does not looks too Chinese. This part was longer that I expect.</div>

After that I filled it with candy, I must admit I went a little crazy this year. I used to be very healthy on this mater. my son's god mother used to compliant because I would only have raising and nuts on my prior piñatas, but I have some emotional process of feeling free to do as I want that lead me to this. I have been in not so healthy relation ship that was too controlling.<br />

I also added some nice toys, jumping ropes, loteias (bingo), pickup sticks and monkey sets, little cute erasers, wrestlers, cup and plates sets, jumping ice cones, and those number mind games at the bottom, do you know them?, my mom would always include them at my parties, kind of a educative mathematical touch, I include that in the little bags of candy I'm giving at the end so they would not have the risk of breaking that I didn't had in mind but I could not fit all in the slim Smaug.<br />

<br />
So last Saturday I head to downtown not having a plan. As we pass in front of our National Theater, Bellas Artes, we got a free ticket to go to the exhibition and so we did.<br />
<br />
We saw originals from Robert Doisneau printed by himself, a great documentary on the time the photographer <span class="st">David Douglas Duncan expent with Picasso and some very original work from the painter, such as metal and clay ones.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="st">And also, the Gay Pride March was passing in front and we watch a little, but the sun was too shiny and my eyes could not bare it too long. </span> <br />
<br />
I leave you with not very good cell phone photos, since I didn't had my camera with me.<br /><br />

I started to work on <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/projects/nahuatlv/andreas-shawl">this shawl</a> for a very dear second cousin who has the role of my gran, since my real one died long before I was born, but she, Mina, knew her very well, and I love to hear about how much I am like her, my gran, Caridad.<br />
<br />
Mina is the most interesting old lady I have ever meet, and at the same time is the one who makes me feel I have a connection with my family, since I'm very different from the rest.<br />
<br />
So I decides to make this shawl for her last year for her 85 birthday. She needs to take good care of her lungs because I think she has a problem with them, so she never goes out of her house in the afternoon. But apart from this she is very active and independent, full of knowledge and always learning some new craft.<br />
<br />
Since she live in Costa Rica, which is very humid and can get cold in the afternoons, but at the same time is tropical, I thought that a combination of wool and cotton would be warm and fresh at the same time, I'm using <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/omega-sinfonia">Sinfonía</a> and <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/yarns/library/omega-dolly">Dolly</a>.<br />
<br />
I have left it abandoned for quite a while, but I hope to finish it soon and send it to her by mail, the pattern is <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/andreas-shawl">Andrea's Shawl by Kirsten Kapur</a>.<br />

I'm reading Little Men and loving it, I wish I have the full set of books by Louise May Alcott starting with Little Woman (which I have reed several times), because I love the feeling I get from them, I guess I'm super old fashioned.<br />
<br />
I think that if I get some time this week I'll watch <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJN6xJ6wuVc">this one</a> with my boy. <br />

I left you with a tip: do not place candles on a cake you just took out of the over if you don't want to expend half an hour peaking through it trying to get rid of melted candles inside of it.La Chilihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05399113500946212730noreply@blogger.com0
