Nice for the warning that snow is again forecast. Not so nice to see the white stuff falling today - Saturday. Still no firewood delivery. Too much snow to get the wood to the woodshed here. I am beginning to feel a bit like a pioneer. But then, I don't think they had dishwashers and indoor plumbing in those days.
I abandoned this post yesterday in hopes of writing something a bit more positive regarding the weather. Not gonna happen. I awoke to more snow, had to shovel the path, and then decided that a fire was a good idea. Split some more wood, lit a fire, and intend to sit here and mull over life and keep warm. A vision of me splitting wood would give you a laugh. I find a huge log, stand it upright, then bring the big maul over my head and swing at the log furiously, only to miss it entirely several times. By the time I am ready to say enough blasphemies to attract every priest in the world, I finally hit the log dead centre. Shoot. That means probably 2 more strikes are necessary in order to burn the bloody thing. Splitting one log is all I can do in a day. Good thing I don't do this for a living. Right now I am trying to bring back the feeling of sweating every day and wanting a cool breeze that was not provided by an air conditioner. OK, I have experienced that, now I am ready to be warm again, due to the weather. If I was God I think I would find a 2x4 and swak me on the head. I change my mind faster than the weather changes here. No one can keep up with 'what I want' - even me.
WILD LIFE IN MY NEW RAINFOREST
VIA ONE RAINFOREST TO ANOTHER - thought these guys were more appropriate. I see their cousins every day
