I am worn out.

.
.
I set the alarm for six.  Not to wake, just to begin waking.  Then the second alarm for eight.  If even then I had doubts.  I reset the eight for nine, snoozing through.  Mom called at ten.  I finally made it down at ten thirty.

She had the spool, to add line for the weed whip.  Said it was there, on the table.  Just waking, I just went along with it.  After waking, I am sure it wasn't on the table.  I looked around pretty well, twice, before giving up on that task last night.  Did she realize, then bring it out, then forget?  Or is it a typical, conscious, mom superiority ploy?  Yes, mom's screw with kids as they do hubbies, friends, and enemies.  Head games, if half of their games also somehow involve fooling, pushing, tricking, themselves.  It's why they are so good at, if some men have them nearly totally zeroed.  The only thing is that they really can misforget things too.  A major vagina thing.

And trickster nexus ones quadruply so... even enough to know without needing to debate it every time.  Just drop cues that the gig is known from time to time.  Which is... sometimes completely lost on them, until their female mind tabulates for the last few hours, day(s), or week.  Then they have an "Oh  shit!  He knows!" moment.  *grins*  Which they promptly forget, for comfort, or ignore or take for granted as there seems no serious consequences. ;p

Some bins gone through.  One to the basement.  Old jeans to be cut for a quilt?  Another emptied and sorted.  Two left to begin collecting shoes and boots of my old sizes.  

We talked about what she wanted on the list.  The new shower head has her priority over the tv wall mount?  That surprised me, if how I would have put it for my druthers.  So, the grab bar goes with the shower work.  Gotta keep em' together.  I need to find plumber tape.  Was looking for that when I had to rest.  May sleep a bit.  No choice.

The goal is through to the tv wall mount.  Minus putting the tv up, today.  Nothing else on the list tomorrow, as putting up the tv, hooking up the headphones, and then setting up the rabbit ears to receive local, assuming I can get the wall mount up today (no guarantee) will take tomorrow and maybe the next day.  And none of those are on the official list.  Especially with my need for rest and extra sleep.

Yes, a bit more sleep.  Then to things when I wake.  So very tired, and sleepy.  But, with plans, by the number, for a bit.  Goals after that... through to fall.  And even some tenative ideas for through the winter.  Quilt cuttings, sewing room(s) setup, and a slower deeper house cleaning and sorting.

Really?  Even next spring has steps roughly being scored.  It's... all possible.  I am impressed with what she is doing.  Impressed with what I have been doing.  Sustainable?  This summer sprint?  No.  But we should have the home ready for company late summer.  Do a bit of family social hosting.  A first for me.  But... my door, as I haave said, is open.

I best get a bit of water.  Then sleep more.  Later.
