Inside the White House is proving to be insightful but very Americanised, quite naturally. Their expectations of their politicians is quite different from ours and perhaps this may even be the basis for their shenanigins. Intelligence seems to be lacking in all the last seven incumbents of the White House, one wonders at the level of puppetry involved. Power corrupts and corruption extends the power. Even the children living there do not seem immune. I wonder what history will reveal of the Obamas, particularly the children.
I love home decorating magazines. While they are costly and involve vicarious peeping into other people's homes I am finding that borrowing them from the library is a far more cost effective method of reading them. I learn ways of using colour, how to make the most of an old chair and how those rich and famous live in such comfortable homes. I do not enjoy those sterile minimalistic interiors, hence the pleasure I receive from an hour or so of perusing free magazines.
Jay was 5 yesterday, it is time I wrote a story about him. His birthday passed quietly, although he had to work in an area of town I had not visited with him before. I love him so much, he is my soul and beautiful companion.
