“Brace for Impact” is right, JadeJ! We’re playing catch-up. It was Oct when I left to stay with our elderlies. It was November when I returned…too fatigued to do much. It’s now heading for Thanksgiving and I’m still …..wait! What happened to autumn and all the things we do to Get Ready For Winter????
I could list about 10 heavy labor chores that NEED to get done right now so that we CAN get thru winter. And yet we cannot do them yet. Our driveway is getting packed snow/ice cuz it snowed 4 more inches later during the night….after our snowplow guy did the driveway. We’ve got a collapsing [leaking] tarp that I’m about to get after with a machete…to let out the snow/ice so it doesn’t damage the rest of the structure. It’s supposed to be DOWN already. And all I can physically do right now is say….wait, I’m not READY FOR THIS WINTER YET!!! I need a rewind of late autumn, please? Note to self: Make SURE we can get to the end of the elect. cord that’s underground for the horse water tank. Ya only make THAT mistake once!
Fall is always our most HURRRY-BUSY time of year but this one got interrupted! Not sure how a whole CITY can claim personal issues for not being prepare tho…
