Day 7:

Diego, partner Iliana and dog Blu put on an evening performance for the children, big and small, in our complex yesterday.  The weather wasn't great, cool and gray, but we all bundled up and went out to our front balconies to take in the show.  If I can figure out how to get the video from my freaking phone onto this site I will do so.  Technology is the bane of my existence.   They did a wonderful job.  Diego, as I said before, is a (minor) actor of stage and screen whereas Iliana is a children's performer.  I'd say they've done this act before.  There was magic and singing and dancing and comedy.  There were even dog tricks!  It was charming.  Diego has now engaged me to help him with his English pronunciation (for his songs).  As we have a lot of time but can't get more than 6 feet from each other, we are going to conduct lessons over the hedge.  Good thing it is supposed to be a warm week... Good Gad.

Last week I told my last holdout student that I wouldn't be going to their house any longer, or at least not until things calm down!  Granddad suggested he bring her (a 7 year old I'm tutoring in reading and maths) here to me this week.  I do hope he doesn't get stopped on the way here.  I'd hate to think of them being hauled off to the big house. 

stay well.  xxoo me
