Sunrise
Wednesday morning I was in bad shape from the woodshed project the night before. I got my post up, got a shower and was running later for the van to take me to the dentist. If it hadn’t been the dentist, I would have cancelled. Just too hard to get a timely appointment rescheduled.
When I got back home, the guys bringing and stacking the wood were there. The first load filled the shed half full, up to the rafters. They said they’d bring an equal sized one on Thursday and finish filling the shed.
The helper stacker said he would come next week and get the 2nd wood shed in shape for putting wood in. The floor needs cleaned out some, the piles of wood moved, and a lot of posts put in to keep the wood stacks off the shed walls.
Early morning sun in the living room
Back home I just sat and rested until the van came to take me to PT just after noontime. She took it easy on me and I was back home by 1:30PM. I made some lunch and put David Attenborough’s ‘Life of Mammals’ on the player and fell asleep for 2 hours.
I got the stoves going again and just sat being a vegetable until it was time to make supper and feed the cat.
Off the back porch in the evening
My #1 intern and I were going to watch the next segment of ‘Pride and Prejudice’ and her sister, my #2 intern, came over to watch it with us.
Middle pasture and barn in the evening
I got the stoves going and went to bed about 9PM. I was a hurting unit and took pain meds in hopes I’d wake up feeling better.
On Thursday I have an enormous mess in the kitchen to clean up, I MUST do laundry, I have lots of seedlings up and they must be tended and watered, I have to set up a second shelf in the new window to hold the ones that came up, more wood is coming, and I need to do the checkbook, just for starters. My #4 helper is coming at 1:30PM and can help with things like watering house plants, vacuuming, finishing the last 2 things in the bedroom, and errands.
