Words escape me

Wow. Life! Right? I just want to press publish now, because explaining everything that has happened lately, wouldn't sum it up as well as those three words do. Perhaps I'm also feeling less is, or should be, more.

Think. Words. Energy. Gone. Or something like that. Actually, I think I will explain it like that...

Tax. Dishwasher broken. Move chicks. Grass. Gone. Prickles everywhere. Dig. Text plumber. Two weeks pass. Call plumber. Dig some more. Remove trees. Chainsaw blunt. Axe handle not secure. Make do. Build new chicken accommodation. No time. Scrounge something. Revive sourdough. Plan to give sourdough workshop. Make calls. Email. Water tank arriving soon. Not finished digging. Do we need to hire equipment? Make calls. Rain coming. Cover chicks. Problem with tow-ball. Need to collect crusher dust. Deadline looming.

Forgetting.

Where.

Head.

Is.  

I'm guessing at this point, I may not get back to regular blogging until late November. We're fine, just extremely busy.

  1. Well, at least you're OK. But, oh, I can understand, although all my problems are in the garden and not the house as well. I remember saying to my husband many years ago, when he complained that I was always outside, that I just wanted to get it all finished so I could sit down and enjoy it. He said, "you'll never be finished". How right he was. See you when you've (ahem) finished. ;-)

    1. Ha! I'm so there with you. Never done. But this is a little more than the regular malarkey. It's bonus material, lol. I'll be glad when the weekend comes, and we have our rainwater tank in place - fingers crossed.

  2. Go gently Chris, some seasons are like that. Dont forget in amongst it all to take the time to sit in the garden with a cuppa to collect our thoughts. Perhaps even more important in a busy season then any other. Dont forget to care for you.

    1. My dear husband has been reminding me of that too Emma. Sometimes you need to hear it, because you can forget you're not doing it. ;)

  3. You certainly sound busy, Chris. It sounds like you need a plumber :-)

  5. The water tank is arriving this week isn't it? I hope everything goes well for the installation. I read about your sourdough workshop - I think that was on Chel's blog? I look forward to reading about the outcome of both projects once you have caught your breath.

    1. Yep, should be coming tomorrow (or the next day) and then being lifted onto the pad by crane, on Friday. It's the pad we're still working on.

      I'm actually looking forward to the sourdough workshop, it's just life is a little crazy at the moment. I'm looking forward to writing about these events in past tense, when I've got more time to commit to words which make more sense, lol. :)
