Xin nian yu kua (Mandarin)
Jan. 26th, 2009 09:51 amToday is the Chinese New Year so if you have backslide on your New Years resolutions, here is a big shiny re-set button to get back on the horse or this year Ox since it is the year of the Ox. According to the Chinese calendar it is 4707. It is the year of the Earth Ox.
I wish you all Gong Hay Fat Choi!
Most of what we were going to do today got shoved to the side as we deal with a break problem on the van. With any luck it will be some thing simple and cheap to fix like a break line or something. I am hoping to have it back sooner rather than later.
So I am working through in my head what I am going to do today. I think I am going to sit down with my clay and sculpt a head or two that I will then cast in papier-mâché. Those will be the beginnings of a couple of marionettes I want to make. If I do this in stages, then I can get everything done in a timely fashion.
I need to find my good tracing paper.
I am grateful for learning about other cultures.
