Random thoughts from the moose cave.

I'm miles behind already. gonna reign in the day and cut my losses. mr vw's brother is on his way to get me so I can retrieve my truck.

gonna hit the parts store and wally. then come back and mow and plant...

smoky and gram will hafta wait until tomorrow when I am better.

I can only do what I can only do...

(I have a treefull of baby peaches)

Could the pollens from mowing all those weeds and grasses be causing you problems? Might consider wearing one of your painting masks while mowing to see if it makes a difference.

with my hood up, and a mask on, I'm bound to attract a shooter...

stress and a crazy schedule are most of my troubles.

I could wear my respirator and all black and be darth vader on a mower...

I'm over to mr vw's inspecting my concrete.

smoky called. he wants to go home sooooooooooo bad.

nope.

he's not ready yet, and I gotta rebuild his porch and make a ramp.

that's not gonna happen tomorrow...

had me some emergency noodles, coming back around now. gonna head for home and mow.

Feeling any better today?

soso.

If I wasn't so busy, Ida took it as a lump day. can't...

went to take smoky outside so he could light up. they took his ceegars away from him. I smuggled him some more, but kept the pack. I can't afford to be buying them for the staff...

took gram a chicken sammich and a frosty. she's feeling a little better and wanted solid food.

and I got my show call to work Tom Petty...

Yaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy....

I woulda worked that one for free. now I get a 2 benjamin bonus while I watch the show.

gotta go get back on my damn mower now...

Yaaaaaaaayyyyyy!

all done mowing for the week. got mower butt now...

and I still gotta go trim at my little old nebbor lady's. she's real particklar.

gonna go light the grill and make me some salmon. it's kinda late, but I need some meat...

You are so kind Rock.
Just checking on everyone.

Hugs,
mis

I'm not that kind...

and I'm firkin cold.

had a cuppa, and Dink is on my lap. got my jacket on. and thick socks.

still shivery.

dang weird weather patterns...

my thought for the day comes from watching Neptune chasing a female cat almost onto the highway last night. they both froze when the oncoming headlights sprayed them. right on the shoulder. I thought the girl cat was going to bolt under the car...

it's breeding season on the farm.

but chasing pussy is a good way to get blindsided. makes you lose your head. and you don't see that bus until you are sized up for being a road pizza.

I need to catch him and have him nutted. it would solve a lot of problems.

but he stays away from me. he knows I am Stinky's dad...

still half wonky, but I gotta get going.

I'll go water all the rosy sharons first and see if that gets my motor going.

I hope so, this is a shop day, and I am way behind. like behind being behind. that far behind...

stinky will have to find another source of warmth.

bubba now spends all day in her spot on the foot of my bed. I think she was surprised to be allowed to stay the other night (stinky has a longstanding territorial claim there), and now is in occupy mode. I keep watching for a tent...

Wonky? I don't wanna hear wonky.

Are you taking good enough care of you.?
Worried with the wonky.

trying to get used to my new pace.

and I woke up cold. that never bodes well...

working at half speed today, but still working.

I gotta get better before the 26th. need my A game then...

What's happening on the 26th?

Tom Petty concert.

gotta be at the arena and human by 8 am.

I'm not really a morning person, ya know...

got the front of the shop all cleaned up. now I can hang a sign and visitors won't think I'm a salvage dump.

Smoky will be freaked out when he comes home.

it looks like people live here.

nice clean people even...

my pond garden is officially beautiful this year. mr vw calls it paradise...

I tweaked my back dumping trash. not good.

gonna skip the auction tomorrow. too much not done here. and no money to even think about goats yet. still gotta work out fence...

making some tilapia on the grill. I gotta quit eating this late. I think that's part of my morning sluggishness. that and no shower...

Well done!
I'd love to see the results of all your hard work.
I hope your back's OK. Take it easy.

And a Tom Petty concert coming up, too.
Life is definitely looking up!

Is this not a permanent ailment?

during the summer, yes.

unless you live in the desert, of course...
