We thought we were making progress... Tractor Guy got the mower deck back on Fergie and took to mowing around the garden in preparation for cutting down the weeds and old plants before putting the tiller back on. He was motivated, the weather was right and he was hard at it when he put the …

On Getting Caught Up
Sometimes -- heck, around here OFTEN -- life is like that. The best of intentions get digressed from for the best of reasons. The best thing to do it pick up the thread again when you find it and got to weaving, spinning, knitting, sewing... again.My off-the-farm work has been kicking my butt with longer …
The work week begins
For me the work weeks begins at 6 AM Sunday, getting everything set at the store to align with the corporate ads published in the Sunday paper.

Work is kicking my butt. And of course, being in a retail environment, it is only going to get worse. I am SO counting the months... 24 as of the end of October... until I can tell them to "take this job and shove it" though actually I won't. Not a bad job, just bad …
Late Monday Post
I was totally beat from work yesterday, intended to blog and just ended up going to bed. Long days at work do that to me, especially when I get startled out of my wits as I come into the house, staggering on dead, hurting legs. Lost the rest of the day to trying to calm …
Long day
Long hard day at the store and a scary arrival home which I will not talk about left me reeling. Hopefully the morrow will be a more productive day.
