Kites. Every single day that I pick up my son at daycare, he has commissioned a kite. I say commissioned because, although he has potentially had some part in decorating the kite itself, he has directed someone with authority over the hole punch to make it into a kite. A creature of habit, he associates daycare with kites, while he associates drawing with pre-school. It is inconceivable to him that a drawing might be produced at daycare, daycare is a kite-making place.
Since 2020, I have written the following: -grandiose grocery lists (written on an empty stomach) that often end up getlting left behind at home -funding proposals -delicately worded emails -harried Whatsapp messages -a slew of facebook messages (that basically kept me alive) -a tinder profile or two... -utilitarian text messages -heart felt text messages -the very occasional love note (on paper) to a friend or a loved one The things I have not written since 2020: -a journal -a multi-page handwritten letter -a play -a sketch -a novel -more than 2-3 blog posts that I didn't even publish -a pros and cons list
