I tried to go back to sleep, but I was awake awake and much to do was running through my brain with vigor. So I got up and got sucked into a mess in the kitchen. . . . . . The coffee was good this morning. The air felt like winter, not cold but like winter anyway, this morning as I climbed my hill. The faint white of swelling buds on the fruit trees is evident and I encouraged them all to go back to sleep for awhile. I hope I remember to wake them back up at the appropriate time, LOL. . . . . . Hanging out with Zephaniah this morning I came to some interesting conclusions. I've never paid enough attention to him before, I think. In a kind of "Eli, meet Frodo" sort of way. . . . Getting ready to be in my studio all day. It's probably a good thing since I way over extended myself yesterday. The butcher block for my butlers cart is almost finished and the legs of same have been cleaned up. The memorial project is near completion and the gate has its hardware. Now I have a clean kitchen. I am blessed.
A clean kitchen is always a blessing.

ReplyDeleteI think I may have to take a page out of your playbook. Don't think the neighbors would like the sound of the roto-tiller at 3 am, though.
ReplyDeleteMy husband doesn't appreciate the coffee grinder at 5 AM either. My playbook is more considerate these days. I don't use loud appliances before 6:30 on weekdays or before 8 on weekends. I don't work in the garage (power tools) after 10:30PM or before 6 AM on weekdays or before 8 on weekends (my neighbor drives a school bus and leaves early). I don't work behind my studio after 11PM (the people up the hill are partiers, so I really don't care if I keep them awake, but the guy across the street is retired and the city has a 11PM curfew and noise ban. If the dogs bark at me at 3AM cause I'm on the hill, it's not my dog. My studio is my own and if noise comes out of it at any hour - tough luck. Playing an instrument at 2AM was not cause for complaint in my raising -learn to like it.
