Domestic Chores Abound…
I’m slow to recommend parenthood to people, it’s an experience I wouldn’t trade for anything but it’s a kick in the shorts, no mistake. Very little in your life remains about “you”, there’s now this smaller priority that is your focus.
The same is becoming true of home ownership. Minor “housekeeping” issues abound, this last weekend was spent gardening and tending the lawn (I am embroiled in a battle with a small patch of crabgrass in my backyard), watering the lawn seeds, finishing the edging, reorganizing the shed (Small space + many tools = creative organization and lots of hangy hooks).
No major projects sadly, just a dozen minor details. I am hoping to overhaul the CCTV system next weekend, adding at least one more camera and finally getting cracking on reconciling and revamping the wiring (real RG6 instead of siamese RG59 for the more tempermental cameras) and hopefully I can post some highlights from that work.
We’re still here, just embroiled in day to day details.
