I worked a full time temp job at the elections office for six weeks, but that’s done for a while and we can go back to doing our regular stuff.
Life is an adventure!
Back to normal life!
Life is an adventure!
Life is an adventure!
Work is good so far.
The tasks are varied and the system is very interesting – there’s a lot to learn and the people I work with are great.
Trav got my Mom’s guitar repaired for my birthday.
It sounds really good, thanks to Alex (our piano guy). Plus, Trav had our piano tuned! It sounds awesome. So happy.
The eastern narrowmouth toad is neat to hear.
On a recent night walk, at the edge of the lake, north of the pier, we heard sheep baa-ing in the grass. So funny!!
Trav and I finished a packet of petitions.
We’ve been temping at the elections office because they have a ton of paperwork to process in the next couple of weeks.
I admire my dad’s musical ability. Happy birthday, Dad!! <3
He plays guitar and piano very well, and is a source of inspiration for me.
Our planet has beautiful giant jelly fish.
It’s as big as a human! CNN story, with picture.
Really appreciating the stability of Frontier internet service.
We switched to Spectrum for a few months, to get faster speed, but it turned out not to be worth it, because it wasn’t reliable. So we went back to Frontier, with more speed, for less money! Can’t beat that.
Got one of the kitchen cabinets organized.
I was getting something out as we were preparing dinner (Lucky Pork and Beans) and somehow I caused an avalanche. Which led me to pulling everything out of the cupboard, dejunking, cleaning, and putting everything back there in a way that makes it much more usable.
Work is going well.
The week of camping and being disconnected made me realize how much more I can do if I’m not frequently using social media and news. I didn’t look at CNN at all and Facebook just a few times while we were gone. Less of that means more time for work! And I’m able to concentrate a bit more.
We’re going to have new neighbors.
Our friends Scott and Rachel are moving in together, and they found the perfect house in our neighborhood.
I’m really excited about turning Tia’s room into a work and craft space.
Last weekend, I made a HUGE dent on the stuff in there, recycling a bunch, throwing some away, and reclaiming things. It’s going to be a place where undisturbed work, and art, can happen.
And so I don’t forget, here’s one of the many reasons we would like a work space: Why You Need an Untouchable Day Every Week. If I could do this, it would be really good for our business.
Trav is making progress on repair of the single kayak.
He bought it to practice on, and his plastic welding skills are coming along nicely.
Spectacular day on the Silver River.
We saw monkeys, manatees, alligators, fish, turtles, and birds. Plus the company was great and we found a groovy restaurant for dinner. Details.
The owlets are getting so big!
Almost every day, I’ve been peeking in on them. Barred Owl Cam
