Well I took down the barrier this morning that blocked the driveway from anyone parking on it and yeaaaaaaay we have a flat surface!!
Of course my garden is a mad jungle and I still have a lot of rock/brick/soil to cart around and rearrange ~ but that's an August job. I am off today to the farm to do some animal-sitting for a few weeks as my parents go on their driving vacation.
One last kick at the dollie can before I bolt for dial-up country ~ here's Dude trying to explain fundoshi to Monk....
At some point their names just sort of gelled. I'd always sort of thought of them in those terms but never voiced the names...then I started actually talking about them and that was that.
Off to pack the car with assorted projects for myself during the week that I'll be alone ~ the 2nd week will probably see friends and/or family members drifting up there. SO I'd best snag those few books I'm about 3/4s through and just grind through them so I can check them off my list.
I've the old BBC series on dvd, The Camomile Lawn to watch too :)
...saw it on t.v. years ago (1992). My cousins in Australia scrounged up a copy of the book for me at a garage sale of all places, when I couldn't find it here to read in the library nor could I buy it (in those pre-internet days) as it was out of print ...really looking forward to some scotch and reminicing with Mary Wellsley's characters *^__^* T.T.F.N.
busy
As for me....am busy and enjoying the quite headspace that currently surrounds me. That changes tomorrow when I bring the sprog up here to join me but I'll have had a full 4 days of almost alone time. Niiiiice. :)
Today is the first day that I was not only able to log into my journal...but click on a comment button and get a window to type in before the imac hiccuped and the internets froze me out of the site. Doesn't happen with every site ...and while I know IJ has had issues....this is right a cross the board and a problem with the phone wires at the end of my fathers driveway. *rolls eyes*....
Miss you guys!
Oops. Sorry for the late notice! :p
Hope you're enjoying all the peace and quiet out there :) *hugs*
*loving that totally appropriate Calvin & Hobbes icon*
*^____^* ....okay I am now forced to be EXTRA patient as I watch the grass grow...on 25 fricken acres that surrounds me. (although technically that would be hay....)
AND yes ...I am actually really enjoying the peace and quiet. I was thinking about that last night....how it doesn't freak me out at all to sit ripping apart kimono in the house at night to the light a single lamp...or wander around in the dark with only a chicken shit little Westie snoring in his basket for company.....(the 3 cats don't count because 2 are usually outside at night because the weather and hunting are good and mine is out cold in another bedroom, buried under the blankets like a lump.)
Teh Bob....would not be comfortable AT all. >D
When you get home for a bit, take a minute and click on the two vids I put up. I guarantee you'll not regret it and it'll put a HUGE smile on your face!
*hugs*
