There is just nothing you can do about it. Sometimes life just sucks. And when that happens the sissy, wuss bags lay down and give up. I'm not a sissy, wuss bag.
There is no snow on the ground so I just keep going. I spent today putting up fence posts and taking down other fence posts. Rolling up and and taking down the old wire. Old wire on a cold blowy day doesn't do much for your hands. But I got a fair amount done none the less. Soon I'll be ready to have the neighbor down to auger out the holes for the wood corner posts. I still have plans for a round pen..... NEVER SAY DIE!!!
The other day when it rained I built my binding jig for my little books. I can't give up on that either. No matter what, I can't seem to quit. Things get harder but I can't quit. I seem to have the need to just keep beating my head against the wall. Bruised and bloody but still moving forward. The bruised and bloody is mostly emotional. Though I did raise a goose egg on my head today after hitting myself on the noggin with the post pounder. That's okay.... sometimes a bit of pain brings about clarity.
I know things will get better though... I know this. I have a dream to catch.

Reading Sister Creek Carriage Works' comment about being "too strong", made me think because I've been "accused" :-) of the same thing... At some point, I stopped banging my head against the wall and suddenly things started to fall into place. It was very strange... As soon as I stopped MAKING things happen, they just... did happen. I can't explain it any better, but maybe food for thought anyway....

There's nothing sissy wuss bags about wearing gloves when you are working with old wire. Take care of yourself - inside and out. ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteIt is sooo hard to find a real good working glove for a woman's hand!!! I did have a pair that belonged to my oldest daughter. I threw them away when i had worn them out to where the fingers were open from the finger tip to past the first knuckle. I am once again looking for a glove that fits and is suitably heavy.
