Mixed with their milk. Just a small knick in the artery and a skin with some milk in it, and away you go. Handy, straight from the beastie beverage. Not quite a Shirley Temple nor a Ceasar, but in the harsh reality of the desert, a refreshment worthy of kings. Not my tempo, but sure, you do you. Adapt or die I guess. I’m thinking that they don’t dress it up with celery salt around the rim, or a lemon wedge garnish, or perhaps a tiny paper parasol poking out the top. No thanks, I’ll pass.
Well, we did it, we made it through to another Friday. Congratulations to you all. It was tough out there, didn’t know if we’d make it. Some didn’t but, life goes on, and the big wheels keep on turning. We have here now, however briefly, a blue sky and some sunshine. Looks good glistening off of all that new snow we have. I was told there would be more either tonight, or on Sunday. My hope is later tonight, like in the wee hours of the morning. I don’t have to be anywhere tomorrow, so I can take my time to clear it on Saturday morning. But if it snows late Sunday, then I have to get cracking first thing Monday morning. To which I say boo! Boo-Urns! Boo, boo! To you. Not that the weather cares one whit about what I want, and why should it. I am simply giving my opinion.
Makes me wish I had a side by side with a plow on it. Like a *V* blade plow, that I can shape shift and be real nimble with when clearing my driveway. That’s overkill obviously. I live in a smaller suburban community, so I don’t have a kilometer long driveway, or homestead grounds to maintain. Would be cool if I did. But then I’d have a heated shop/studio space, and lots more to do around the property, and in this fantasy situation, I’d be ridiculously wealthy, and tell no one, but there would be signs of it, I’m sure. Buying property, and a side by side plow would be a dead give away, but you know, whatever. Yeah – I know a tractor would be better, and far more versatile, I’m just spit balling fantastical situations here. Jeez! Gosh!
Finished book five yesterday. I didn’t even look back at the Bob Evans book. I went straight for the Adrian Tchaikovsky novel. The last part of a trilogy. Hope it’s good! The first two were pretty great. So good I picked up two of the three available parts of a different trilogy. I eagerly await the last entry in that series too. Even though I’m off to a cracking start to the year, I know my interest will wane, and my focus wander. Soon it’ll be warm enough again to be in the wood shop during down time. I have my model kit about 45% built, so that’s moving forward, albeit a tad slowly, but progress is being made little by little. I think the resin kit may continue to remain shelved for the time being. Oh well. Also, I have done (0) zero work on my children’s illustrated book this year, thus far.
I haven’t had anywhere near the same amount of downtime as in years previous. I used to have between 9 & 11 weeks with nothing. So far I’ve only gone about six days without getting anything new in, which is astounding. Those down periods were in effect prior to Covid, so I’m just as excited about all the new work as you are shocked to hear it. How long will it last? I don’t know. But I’ll ride it out while I have it!
