OK, it's Tuesday and Kevin's still not here.

I've had no messages, no calls as to his whereabouts. So far as I know he was last here Saturday afternoon when he went out with Michelle to one of her friend's parties somewhere near Maitland. I had no indication that he wouldn't be here when I left, and I mentioned several times that while I'd probably be back Sunday I mightn't be home until Monday.

So what gives. I haven't phoned him yet as I couldn't find my mobile for a bit (it was tucked up in an obscure pocket in my new drawing carry bag) and I'm charging it right now. Apart from being concerned about Kevin (it seems unlikely that he's gone somewhere with Michelle as she has her HSC tests this week) Hallie is starting to get to me.

She escaped out the back some how just as I was about to have a shower. I went out dressed in only a dressing gown and hat and lured her back with cat food. But I lost my temper with her too and pretty much terrified her. When I let her out of the room (Kevin always gives her time "Out" by locking her in his bedroom) she was huddled under the dressing table.

But I can't afford her running off like that - what if she'd done it while I was trying to catch today's bus (for the replacement appointment with my G.P)? What if I come back and she's missing, likely to be dumped or in the pound? She's going around with a leash attached for the rest of the day and I'm going to have to lock the dogs inside for the rest of the day.

If Kevin's not back by the time I get back from the G.P., I'll give him a call and find out what's what. If I do that now (before I see my G.P.) it's only likely to complicate things, and bugger that!

Got this locked in before I left last week.

I'm leaving on the 2nd and coming back on the 9th. Phoned mum and let her know last night. Wasn't on for long as thunderstorms were rolling in. Had all the dogs in the bedroom with me.

Still, looking forward to visiting family and friends in Perth, while the house is minded. Assuming of course that Kevin wasn't killed/injured in a car crash or in hospital jail. Then again, Jenny across the road would look after them, so maybe that's not critical after all.

Concientious, Fulfilled, and Spiritual

21 Renaissance, 15 Islamic, 14 Ukiyo-e, -17 Cubist, -34 Abstract and 0 Impressionist!

The Renaissance was a cultural movement that profoundly affected European intellectual life. Beginning in Italy, and spreading to the rest of Europe by the 16th century, its influence affected literature, philosopy, religion, art, politics, science, and all other aspects of intellectual enquiry. Renaissance artists looked at the human aspect of life in their art. They did not reject religion but tended to look at it in it's purest form to create visions they thought depicted the ideals of religion. Painters of this time had their own style and created works based on morality, religion, and human nature. Many of the paintings depicted what they believed to be the corrupt nature of man.

People that like Renaissance paintings like things that are more challenging. They tend to have a high emotional stability. They also tend to be more concientious then average. They have a basic understanding of human nature and therefore are not easily surprised by anything that people may do. They enjoy life and enjoy living. They are very aware of their own mortality but do not dwell on the end but what they are doing in the present. They enjoy learning, but may tend to be a bit more closed minded to new ideas as they feel that the viewpoint they have has been well researched and considered. These people are more old fashioned and not quite as progressive. They enjoy the finer things in life like comfort, a good meal, and homelife. They tend to be more spiritual or religious by nature. They are open to new aesthetic experiences.
