Title: David Cohen and Students
Caption: Catherine (Murphy) and I went down to the city so Catherine could get a haircut from Olivier and go to her galley, Peter Freeman. We also went around to see some shows. We, as we often do, drove around and took turns going in to see shows. At the David Hume exhibition, I ran into David Cohen, taking his students around to galleries. There might be more information added when I hear back from David.

Title: Simon Tosky
Caption: I had to be at school by 9:30 am this morning, so Simon very nicely agreed to come to work at 8:30 am. I wanted to have some time before I left for school to show him some ins and outs for a model he was going to make. After I left for school Simon did various things, but I wasn't home, so I did not witness them. I got home from school at about 3:35 PM. Simon and I went to the Dutch Barn to continue setting up my sculpture models. We had gotten a new table last week. Simon showed me the new digging he did for the water line from the well to the house, which was fine. While I went over some things for school, Simon worked in the basement. Now we are sitting on the porch and typing what you are reading.

Title: John Slizewski and Tracy from Sterling Pump
Caption: John came to check on the water line between the well and the house. He brought Tracy with him, of which I was quite pleased because I was able to draw for some of the time they were working. John did the snaking of the water line routine to see if he could hear where he thought it might be clogged. Now that Simon had done quite a bit of digging he was hoping to hear it more clearly, which he did. John now dug for a while to follow the sound so he could unearth the waterline, which he did. He detached the coupling and snaked up the line going in the direction of the well. All kinds of crap came out of the line with the water. The diagnosis was the original line is compromised beyond repair. So that we could have water, he attached a hose above ground from the well to the house and had asked me to ask Simon to better uncover where that connection was visible, so he could better get at it. As soon as the hose was attached our water pressure increased 100 fold. He now needs to contact an excavator and arrange for a ditch to be dug for a new line. This is all very unnerving because of tree roots and the garden. His schedule is very tight, but he will have to get the line put in before we get freezing temperatures.

Title: Simon Tosky
Caption: Simon got here early (9:00 am, his usual time is 10:00 am.) It was supposed to be sunny and the earlier time enables Simon to set up Catherine's (Murphy) painting when I am at school. It turned out not to be reliably sunny, so the painting wasn't set up. Simon had to come to school to pick up a bag of tomatoes that I accidentally brought with me. Then he went to the supermarket to get various things and to pick up Singapore noodles for Catherine for dinner tomorrow when I am at a critique. He also got lunch for himself at the Chinese restaurant. After moving a new table to the Dutch Barn he resumed digging a hole near the house to try and find the water pipe. Our water pressure is terrible and John from Sterling Pump thinks he found a blockage. When Simon locates the line we are going to look for the place where the plastic hose is connected to a metal line. Now we are typing this caption and we'll try to get to some more entries.

Title: Simon Tosky
Caption: We had Simon come at 9 am instead of 10 am (his usual time), so he could help Cathy set up for her morning painting (Pails). When he got here he did his regular morning routine, after which he helped Cathy set up. When he was done with that we did my self portrait and this photograph and now we are working on this site. From time to time Cathy (Murphy) will call Simon to help move her painting, when Simon isn't here I help Cathy setting up. After lunch Simon will help Cathy set up for her afternoon painting (Camo). We will work some more on the site (I assume). I have a doctors appointment this afternoon.

Title: Simon Tosky
Caption: Simon got here at 9 am so he could help Cathy (Murphy) set up for her morning painting which he did. After that he switched stools for, hopefully, one more comfortable for Cathy's (Murphy) afternoon painting. Simon went off to Kentucky fried chicken to get the new special for our lunches, but the one in Poughkeepsie didn't have it, so he went and got us lunch at Wendy's. In the afternoon he went to home depot to get Cathy a tarp for one of her setups and while there he bought some plastic for covering my sculptures and new drill which we needed desperately. I forgot to take Simon's photograph.
