+ | Every year when June is turning towards second half i promise to my self next year to remember how hectic it gets. The stress of the end of the school year for kids disturbs your life completely. You can try to ignore it or go with their flow it still exhausts you... | ||

+ | I've agreed to have a meeting this week and then 2 other heavy and long meetings sneaked in... People left smiling and happy as always, but because i'm not use to have long talks at this time i had a headache for a few days. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | On a plus side i received a few propositions for projects post 2017. That sounds exiting but also a bit scary. Mainly because i feel i might lose my focus if i do to many unrelated things. The same goes for energy. If i only concentrate on bits and pieces i will be spending more time on preparation, | ||

+ | In Lithuanian mythology summer solstice is representation of merging of two major powers: fire and water. This year the earth is swamped by water. So much that we didn't even feel like making a bonfire. It is also seen as a week when the time stands still. After 29th of June it is said that the Sun is jumping back and starting to make days shorter. Magic is in the air. You can really feel it. | ||

+ | This week started with a heavy rental/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | I've concentrated on the renting activity at FoAM this first half of the year as the experiment to see how much money could the space bring. We still have to count all up but i'm sure we are far from making this activity to pay for the full rent of the studio. Realistically it would mean to host such a two days rental ( multiple days are always more profitable) ones a week. If it is only me working on this it means that i need at least 2 days rest afterwards. That leaves only one day a week (that is if we don't count weekends) that i could have energy to do something els. Also it is not sustainable to do it alone. What if i get ill or have a family emergency? At the moment there was a few times already that i had to reject people because i was doing something els. Most of the hosting tasks can be performed by a student or a young person for a small fee. Because if everything is agreed and organised with the rental group there is not so much to do. Most important that someone has to be in the studio all the time (this time i had to stay in from 8-22h!) and take care of the coffee breaks. | ||
