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

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.
