    8 hour shifts plus long commute equals about 10 or 11 hours of the day turned for just work. Pay is ok tho.

    @tree you bet I am, and soon I can afford to do it, too! It's a good situation.

    @tripleU it's not "easy" but figuring out how to fit right in has been actually kind of neat. My car broke down and I have to spend a lot of time fixing it this evening. But it works out in the end.

    I caught a mockingbird!

    The mockingbird is an insectivore which makes this somewhat complicated but they do thrive on cat food and other things. Usually I had seed eating birds.

    Good luck to you and the birdie. I hope she/he is flying again soon!

    Girlfriend and I gave it some water and we have it waiting and resting in a produce crate on one of my old shirts.
    Her sister already named it "Peanut." We do not know if it's a boy or a girl.

    Shabby chic furniture does, and always will, look like seagull crap.

    I just bought a quartered oak gramophone from England. English oak is the stuff of poetry and fable... and it's buried under a shade between "seagull squirt" and "white woman's Instagram."

    Sad. I hope the acetone needed to strip the paint doesn't do too much harm to the oak.

    I use citrus base removers and will probably strip afterwards with denatured alcohol and then refinish in orange shellac. It should turn out all right!
    My girlfriend hates "modern farmhouse."

    My new job is awesome, and there's a plant boss in New Models now curious about something I am inventing, so perhaps in a few years it might get more awesome.

    Sorry I haven't been posting tons lately--I like all you all; just very busy with some things I need to do!

    Hey. You are successful. WHY are you apologizing? Own it.
    Gerontius
    I started a job today & I like this one better.

    What? Is this another friggen success story? Yay.

    Gerontius
    @Aspychata you can say that, I guess--I went in for orientation at a factory & the trainer suggested at the end of the day I check out applying for IT instead of production or welding. Now I like that idea but I would rather "earn my stripes" on the assembly-line.THEN I can go up and see about something more.
    I hope I can apply for an apartment next and go get a place to live.
    Gerontius
    I'm half excited & half grateful about being able to go to work at an actually adequate job, not this minimum-wage nonsense where I can't live alone or start prepping for a family.

    Taking a vacation from blue light: dark midnight, radio dial lamp & a plain candle. I love the dark like this--it does not hurt to look at; it looks the way quiet feels.
    Gerontius
    I hope I can get a job & then watch the bottom fall out of the housing market. A home is where hearth & family are--It's not capital investments; it's a human right.

    Work of 3 weeks setback, depressive state returning. Deep distrust, isolation. Time to work on changing that.

    I appreciate your attitude. Recognize the hardship, but keep moving forward. Keep your eyes on the horizon where there is definitely hope for change.

    Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceedst to three. Five is right out.

    Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch

    The Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch was a weapon in Brother Maynard's keeping. According to the Book of Armaments, chapter two, verses nine through twenty-one, it was consecrated by Saint Attila. The scriptural account in the Book of Armaments: "And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high...

    Finally. Someone bought a very expensive item from me but he actually paid me this time unlike the other guy. Thank goodness.

    It was a $600 record player. I have to crate it & ship it but at least it's money.
