- It is surprisingly easy to do even the most difficult task when you go back and do the basic prep work properly.
- I love the way the wind smells when there’s one heck of a thunderstorm up wind from me.
- Stopping me from working to tell me I ought not to eat my lunch at my desk is part of the reason I feel it necessary to work while I eat.
- Here’s a hint: If I keep turning my back on you to click some menu choice that will run while you talk to me, that means I really don’t have time to gab at the moment.
- I really need to stop being so critical while watching children’s movies. We’re watching WallE and I’m pointing out the problems with how the ship is run and how wasteful they are for being self-sufficient after 700 years.
- I have a wonderful wife. She was informed by her bank that she had 13,000 ‘points’ on her account , and that she needed to use them or they would expire. She passed on spa days, clothing, even electronics, and used them to get gift cards at the local hardware store.
- Now I have fewer excuses to not build all the things she thinks I’m capable of building.
- Boo needs to learn that when I drop my voice a couple of octaves and start enunciating very carefully, it’s time to freeze and figure out what he’s doing that is wrong.
- And if I’m growling like a bear and not smiling, that’s a hint and a half.
- Apparently I need to acquire plans for a “pergola“, which I think is the Greek work for “big pain in the ass”.
- The thing that keeps going through my mind as we discuss this ‘project’ is the Finnish word “perkele”. Coincidence? I think not!

/ August 10, 2012The Hawai’ian word pilikia also comes to mind. (Look it up. You’ll remember it longer.)
I have the same thoughts about thunderstorms. I need a good porch to watch them from, though, and my new house doesn’t have one.
