Tired


Its been almost two months since I’ve had time to write anything for this site. I feel guilty… but mostly I just feel tired. What I haven’t done… fish, take pictures, take the dogs for adventures in the woods, and any of the other things that I like to write about here. What I have done is work, and then work some more, and then after that, work some more. Then finally, I just fall into a chair until bedtime. One thing that took a lot of time, but was fun and interesting too, was to help my son find a new apartment and then move in. He was living in a large apartment house, nice, but more like a dormitory than a home. Apologies to those of you who may enjoy living in large apartment houses, but my son was raised in the country where the nearest neighbor is about 1000 feet away. Living is a big box full of little rooms wasn’t really his favorite thing. But it was a nice place and it served his needs well for three years.

Finally, he found a place he likes really well. Its the second floor of an older home built in 1925. He has a full second-story front porch, a gas fireplace, built-in display cabinets with real leaded glass doors, and hardwood floors everywhere except the one carpeted bedroom. Although old, its been modernized and is in beautiful shape. He painted three rooms before he moved in and will probably paint the dining and living rooms after he has lived there awhile. Best of all, its much closer to where he works. Shorter drive and he can sleep later too. Talking about sleep, I’m tired… more later after a short nap. zzzzZZZZZ…..
