To Do List

Like a Dog

Dirt took me for a birthday ride on his motersickle.  Haven’t been for a ride ride in a long time (my aching hinney today is a testament to that fact).  I can’t even remember when it was that I took a quick ride to Yelm to get something at Sunbirds, I’m pretty sure that was … Continue reading »

Sunday Not-Work Work

Oh my, what a day yesterday!  I wanted to work on the neglected back yard a bit.  It will soon be summer  and the backyard and other purely ornamental areas will be in nearly irredeemable disarray. (Yes, for some places in the yard and house summer gets here in a flash, if I’m not careful.) So to … Continue reading »

Damages and Images: Part One, the Wonder and the Havoc

       Three weeks ago, on January seventeenth, the whole of the Pacific Northwest received a large dumping of snow overnight, on top of a fairly typical earlier snowing,      short lived and melty, on the fifteenth and sixteenth.   Nearly as soon as we woke up on the eighteenth      and were … Continue reading »

This Week’s Plans

Really I only have plans for today, but since I always think I can get more done in a day than I can and tomorrow Bet has a allergy appointment for her Eosinophilic esophagitis, well then, my saying “this week’s plans” for what I hope to get done today is probably far more accurate! In … Continue reading »

So That Would Make Today… Faturday

Yep, the confusion continues.  Dirt and I have lounged this morning, coffee in bed, yum.   Now for a quick breakfast and then off to the hardware store for supplies.  A four day weekend of projects ahead.   As a family we are trying very hard to finish up projects before we start new ones but sometimes … Continue reading »

The Bedroom Story, Part One

Well, here’s the hole that started it all. It all began with the bed actually, but right now it is just a big brown uninteresting box. So the hole will get top billing for now. The hole and the termites that ate the hole, nice square job they did eh? (That was really Dirt’s handi-work.) … Continue reading »

Behind

I am trying hard to not being discouraged because I know when I get discouraged I just get farther and farther and farther behind. Sometimes I feel like throwing in the towel and getting back in the ring next year but then next year will have a worse mess on its hands. So I am … Continue reading »

Electric Day

7:00 Order some chickens for next year’s laying and breeding program and 25 broilers. Too late to get the ones I really wanted, once again procrastination does not pay off. 9:00 The electric day really begins now with electromyography, not unlike tripping over the electric fence while wearing the dog’s training collar while the dog … Continue reading »

I’m Up, I’m Up

Up earlier than usual but right about what I planned. Need to get stuff done before the sun gets too bright. Going to tackle the grapes first and then some weeding and planting. Looking forward to a great and beautiful day listening to the Holy Spirit’s leading.
