I've deleted all the posts that are super personal. Posts about love, hate, drama. I'm tired of it. I want to try and focus on the positive. So here goes:
Tomorrow I'm going to finally start the work to finish winterizing the cabin. The weather's been horrible here. Cold and rainy. Not really any summer at all. So i've been procrastinating. But, enough is enough. it's gotta get done. First thing first is to finish insulating the walls and putting up the vapor barrier. That's going to help a lot with the heat loss. Next on my list is shingling the roof of the extension. Originally it was supposed to be a living roof, the liner is even already up there for it, which is the most expensive part. But, money's tight and it's gotta get done. there's already tons of water damage from leaks through the fall and winter, and i gotta get that place air-tight if I'm going back there this winter... which hopefully I am.
I'm still looking for a roomate for the winter there. I don't know what the fuck I'm going to do. I'm starting to get stressed. Byron and Carina are still there for right now, but i don't know for how much longer. Boxcar still needs to be taken care of. I can't have her in here. I might have to give her away even. I dunno. I've ordered my firewood for the winter - 8 cords of maple - it's gonna set me back 950 bucks, but that's fine. I have the money, thanks income tax! So, i'm just going to buy it and even if i don't use it this winter it'll be there ready to go for next year. One less thing to worry about.
My garden at the cabin is long gone. the one in town is slow and steady. with no sun my seeds are only just starting to sprout and it's been a couple weeks since i planted them. But, i'm still stoked that it's mostly alive and well.
I want to put some pictures up here of what i've been up to lately. Of my garden. that sorta thing. Soon soon.
