A new month…

October 1. I supposed I’m putting some significance on the number 1. Seems like a good place to start…something. We’ll see how long it lasts…
The weekend was a good balance of productivity and rest, with a bit of socializing involved. An afternoon on the water yesterday was a nice change of pace from slinging flagstone and stairs from the day before. So glad we have the hottub though, and now all the lights work!
Pondering a winter road trip to PDX to visit mom. Why not fly? Well driving would actually be a bit more expensive due to the gas prices, but it’s tough to take a boxer and a newf on a plane, and the thought of spending the holidays with 4 dogs and 2 cats seems almost too comical to pass up. Either that, or I’m just sick in the head…
