Bruce's Journal

Bruce · Dec 2, 2018

Seem to be back to normal ... fighting the urge to sleep when I'm not moving and wrestling with it when I am moving, narcolepsy is like that. Moved, refilled, replaced the wood rack on the porch landing yesterday. Still about 1 rack left in the stacked wood then on to the pre-filled racks though I don't know if that will be dry enough to burn. Guess I will see.

Out to dinner at the Thai restaurant last night with DW, 28th anniversary.

Above freezing today, possibility of rain though not seeing it, just really heavy cloud cover. Lots of snow on the barn roof, I expect, actually hope since it is heavy, it will slide.
Big excitement today will be doing Quicken updates and account reconciling with statements. Yep, exciting to be sure.

Oh wow! Now that IS something to look forward to...bet you can hardly wait to get started but you do realize of course, the terrible emptiness and loss of purpose that always follows when you are done and have keyed that last 'click to save'. Buck up...........something will come along in the next few weeks to make life worth living again, tho admittedly, it won't be quite the same..never is.

Hope your snow slides gently off the barn roof when animals are inside sleeping...have a restful day.

That kind of snow never falls gently. And it has to drop about 12'. Gonna be quite the "WHOOMP" when it lands.

You are right @greybeard, there will be no joy in my life once I've finished those tasks :gig

I've seen some videos in which people get up there and ride the snow to the ground...sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. It seems to be a 'thing' in some of the Nordic countries..a sport of sorts..
