Hi Seesaw,
Eight months carrying the work without having to explicitly set limits is good self-management. It's also frustration management. And congrats on landing new work! Just know you'll find a perfect assistant.
Cooldown notes: hauled some perfectly sized pieces of cut laurel the city cleared from a right-of-way maybe two months ago. Firewood. I think this adds to my pile and is enough for several winters. Which is great as it gives the wood time to dry out.
Playing with gluing rubber soles on to my leather slippers. So far, they're working great.
Tomorrow I'm planning on dropping by the gardens of a few people who are listed on a garden tour map. Could be very much fun.
Enough for today, work wisely.
