Tough times never last, but tough people do.

Robert H. Schuller

Another Friday. Tomorrow I will decide again if going to the dump is the right move. I think not because of the three days of rain the dirt roads around me will be seething with oversized farming equipment. I will wait a little longer. I have plenty of other work to do. I should get back to working on that back deck. Lots to do there, rafters reinforcing a redo of one side that covers a window it should not.

How does that fit in my new muscle pains? It is a tough shit needs doing thing. If not me then who. The cold weather is coming, whether or not I do anything.

I do nothing and my back deck is not useable most of the winter, the spot I need to run the gen during the short winter days to keep my solar batteries charged.


I JUST SAW MY FIRST FLOCK OF GEESE GATHERING. SUMMER IS OVER.
