POST 532 (DAY 542, Wednesday, 2022.02.02)
[Morning Entry]

…… grateful for carpentry and electrical opportunities.. I’ve always wanted to learn how to build things out of wood and wires.. like a house.. or something simpler in this case, such as the library dock.. the best kind of learning in my opinion is hands-on learning.. looking back at all we’ve accomplished in just the past few months.. so glad to be a part of this crew that is truly awesome.. let’s go!! :)

Ssmithson—thanks for the tip! Pesos it can be in our next seed order..
Beau—great to hear from ya! Thanks I’ll be sure to remind everyone who helped make it happen.. there’s still some more to do to reach the first vision.. I.e. the interior insulation and paneling.. so we’re working on sawmill stuff..

…… grateful for discipline, structure, routine, regimen.. so much to be said about these and how greatly they’ve served me on my path.. perhaps in my upcoming book..
…… paul was generous enough to give us a chance to wrap up a few unfinished half-assed holiday projects on boot time.. do yesterday we finished the comforter shelf, dock lighting, and the window quilt (the linseed oil was a last minute addition, so actually mounting the quilt to the window will happen probably over the weekend)..
