I feel burning grief & regret when thinking of my kid’s measurements on the doorway where we measured their growth. Marriage gone, house lost, kids grown. The past is so past and I was happy then. All lost. I was trying. I did my best, but it wasn’t enough.
Time is a factor that can’t be removed from procrastination. If you control time, you can get the procrastination licked.
I immediately think “how am I going to do the log? Computer? Palm? Paper? There’s probably something out there already so I don’t have to re-invent the wheel.”
The first one got my attention:
“most goals are abandoned because they are too big and vague”

Here is what I am working on: I’ve been tearing down the radial arm saw, and got that all rehabbed, and actually better than ever before. The saw was outside from the time I moved here in October of 1998 until the time I went to my mother’s to help build the log cabin. That was March 2000. Ugh. Then I came back in December 2000, and outside of the basement door it went.
But I bought a new tarp. . . I got new rocks. . .
On some days, I listened to the rain fall on from my bed.
Then, I triumphantly got it into the basement early this March. You see, it didn’t fit through the door. I had to majorly disassemble it. Of course, it was outside for, oh, 5 and 1/2 YEARS or so. It was pretty trashed, but now it is better than before when it was in my garage shop, because, then, I never bothered to ADJUST and ALIGN it for accuracy. Today, I did.
I was going to build a wood shop in the basement when I arrived. Yes, October 1998. Today, I am cutting wood for the Benches.
Hallelujah.
