\nThere are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Will Rogers<\/strong><\/p>\n

When I was a boy, I watched a friend do that right after he used stinging nettles for toilet paper. I wonder whatever happened to him, probably became a doctor or politician.<\/p>\n

My way of saying things “There are 3 kinds of people, those that make things happen, those that watch things happen and those that don’t know what happened” I am not sure where I got those words so for now I will claim those as more words of Rod<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I have so much to do is just another way of saying I am not doing it. It’s raining, as you can see by the picture. I have lots of inside work I hope to accomplish today. My Rockwool cubes are in, I am just waiting on a few more items that I hope will arrive tomorrow. I hate to waste a trip to town again if I don’t have to.<\/p>\n

It has been dark for too many days in a row I will have to run the gen if it is not raining too hard. Solar batteries too low, power banks too low.<\/p>\n

The weather looks good for Saturday’s Dump trip. I need the trailer to pick up some other supplies. I am looking forward to that. It’s only been 9 months of trying to get that done.<\/p>\n

But it does take care of summer garbage. Today is another litter box day. I need to empty and refill four of them. In deep wet grass. I am overjoyed about that.<\/p>\n

Litter boxes are done. Sweeping my office, partly done. Taking a rest break. While I was outside, I saw the steel bowl was full of rainwater. I stuck my face in there washed it and then my hair and carried on. No soap no shampoo coz Dr. Squatch says so.,<\/p>\n
