I racked up just shy of a hundred miles today just running errands. Buying parts for the travel trailer, a stop at Woodcraft to pick up an Incra miter fence (it was on sale!) and for some odds and ends, and Lowes for some supplies before heading home. Basically, a big loop around Baltimore. The weather was halfway decent, meaning it least it held off of raining. Jeff took Kodi to the groomer while I was away as well as did some mulching, I did work in the basement.

The weather has me a bit off; I cant stand the hot/dry followed by cold/wet over and over without feeling a bit exhausted. Depending on what the weather decides to saddle me with will determine what I do tomorrow. The Stratus needs a front wheel bearing, it was damaged a while ago when I hit a nasty pothole that bent one of the new rims. It took a couple years, but sure enough, it's growling the past few days. Everything needs normal maintenance, oil/fluids/cleaning, etc. I just wish I could get some help beyond what Jeff and I are doing in the yard, I'd be able to get more done.

Saw Milk tonight finally. Excellent movie. Sean Penn was amazing in his portrayal of Harvey Milk. Had this movie been released a few months earlier, I think the whole Proposition 8 debacle would have merely been a sidenote in history.

I lost a lot of respect for Penn during the whole Katrina thing. :P

He went to New Orleans with his camera crew and a boat to "save people" ... but there were so many of his crew, there wasn't room for anyone else.

*grin*

Ahh.. fame. ;)

I know what you mean about having help.Sometimes I feel totally overwhelmed with all the stuff that I have to deal with but what I found that works is to just do one thing at a time and keep at it slowly but steady and it all seems to get done.Of course then more shit gets heaped on the pile and it never really ends but by going slow and steady,taking time to do your other things,and having some fun it doesn't seem so bad.

I think I'll try your approach to my regular house chores. I tend to let things pile up, then despair because the pile is so big. I know there must be some pathology in there. LOL!
