By a Carpenter mankind was made, and only by that Carpenter can mankind be remade. <\/strong><\/p>\n

More rain feels like Vancouver.<\/p>\n

I managed to cut five boards for the rear deck. It took all I had, I am tuckered out. I will work on the deck boards again tomorrow. Next, I need to repair or replace the OSB on the wall behind where the deck will be attached to the wall.<\/p>\n

I miss doing carpentry I may not be good at it, but I enjoy it. Looking at my tools I wonder If Jesus had Ryobi would we still have Gospel? You may think that is blasphemy but I’ll bet he is smiling.<\/p>\n

And they did, hundreds of them, soon my arms and back were on fire. I had no choice but to retreat inside.<\/p>\n

When I got in I realized I was exhausted and out of breath again.<\/p>\n

I crawled behind the safety of my squito net and collapsed. That is where I am now typing this. And here I wait for the next line of thunderstorms to roll through.<\/p>\n

If Plant can find love at his age, maybe I can too, although I am not a rockstar.<\/p>\n
