Hours seem long in prison – Martha is searching for occupation

There is no classes during summer holiday time.
Only some classes take place.
Those which are available Martha had already finished.
So hours seem exceptionally long…

Martha is searching for occupation, to fill the time.
Until now she was avoiding fitness, but last Friday, she let second inmate to get Martha out.
It was a first time for Martha.
They went together and Martha was pleased.
Fitness is a part of the Gym.
(Fitness equipment can be seen on a video we presented on August 6).

Yesterday Martha went for knitting classes and musical classes.
She played drums.
In gave her a lot of joy,
She was happy that today she was supposed to play ukulele.
Small things, little joys…
And time passes, and passes….

On evenings work at the library, and thick, English books – learning for the exams…
