Down late up later.

I think it was around noon when I finally woke.  I had an opportunity at about 6:00 but knew that I would be exhausted all day so I went back to sleep.  It was well after 2:00 when I went to bed, perhaps as late (early) as 4:00 or 5:00?  No worries, it just... the weather is a bit part of it.  It became overcast yesterday and has just stayed that way.  The cool came in and that just did things.  Well, I did start medicine back up, but it doesn't seem as if that is the problem.  Not yet anyway.

I am thinking of getting a shower in.  Perhaps that will help.  Making breakfast while I am at it, give or take.  Then out to the asparagus bed.  Hmm... I think I forgot to move the whites over to the dryer.  I'll do that too, as a first thing.

With a lot of the little things, mostly, managed, I am hoping to get sod removed and complete planting today.  It's not bad, really.  Later than I hoped, if I think it will work out.  I have let the neighbors know that, whenever it is convenient for them, I would take those berry bush starts.  Everything should be ready for those, too... just a cut through the plastic and some digging through pre-loosened soil, and a bit of watering perhaps.

If I can get those things done today, I might begin working on clearing the gutters I do have.  They are all full of dirt, leaves, and... who knows.  Oh, and I'll finally take down the Christmas lights... rightly.  :p  Yeah, yeah, I know.  Things are improving.  I hope to not get so far behind on things from now on.  Later this spring I may end up climbing to remove a few of those branches I didn't finish with last year, in the evergreens... and with some help, plan to trim some of the leafing tree branches.  I'd like to figure a time with both the electric company and some help so that the wires will be undone while I do some of the work, then put back up afterward.  I don't want the risk of playing around the wires or even going without power for a day or five.  They get fussy when you don't include them in your plans.

Yeah, not bad.  More things to do than what I can do in any sort of short order but much has happened, much is happening, and I am becoming more able to do more and more.  I think that is part of the trick to life... to always have more to do but not so much more that you get buried in it and not so little that there is no drive... purpose...  You must have it.  Just don't let it choose you, you must manage it, even if handing it off to God when you aren't sure.  He really doesn't want us to be His slaves though, He wants us to begin learning to choose rightly, then doing so... only returning to Him for advise, or when we fail, or even to share in the joy of a reasoned purposeful existence.

Later.
