I need to learn to say no! Yesterday I dug out a plant in my backyard so they could replace my sewer pipe and my shoulders and arms hurt. Today I dug for about 4 hours to make a parking place for a friend & had to move a pallet of pavers. We still have at least another day to finish that project if all goes well. My whole body hurts & I’m going to crash early!
I hope some ibuprofen helps dull the muscle aches, too!
Have a cold beer and bask in the sense of accomplishment. Slainte!
Vodka is working quicker but I’m switching to beer soon.
The brilliant Ogden Nash noted “Candy is dandy/But Liquor is quicker.”
We know no matter you’re flexing in the mirror soon to see if you have more definition in the delts.
I don’t but I have more definition in my calluses.
I woke up early this morning and had that glorious realization “this is a holiday, the alarm clock is off, go back to sleep.”
YES!!!!
No more days off until late November…sigh.
Oh that sucks, I’m sorry.
In my contractor days with no paid time off, it was basically only a day off when the company was closed and the stretch from MLK jr Day to Memorial Day was painful.
That was like my last job as a baker. The stretches between Halloween and NYE, and then between Ash Wednesday and Easter were absolute murder.
The thing about farm life is that there are no holidays. There are many days when the work is light, but there is always a thing to do. This is probably why they had big families. Our farm “family” is one of choice, but it’s family nonetheless.
Mrs Butcher, who grew up in Manhattan, wanted goats so she could make cheese. I, who grew up on a farm, knew what the reality was. She wouldn’t listen to me so I brought her to a goat farm where the owners gave her the ugly truth.
it was a monday amongst mondays for me
the combination of no ac at work + 90f +hangover + missed breakfast and didnt pack a lunch…is not great
i also forgot to take my pinpass to work…so emergency shitty sammiches werent an option…
