I made a comment to my neighbor who we are in a joint kitten rescue operation with. (Photo)
I told him "NO MORE PROJECTS!!"
Once I finish this addition carport overhang off the side of one of the outbuildings I AM DONE.!!
At least till October and cooler weather. The time is an issue as you write of here. And also the health aspects of the stress from the heat and mental aggravation (hypertension/stress) it is a killer.
We need to get our shit straight bro. Stop pushing so hard and find that downslope to coast for awhile...
One must know when to release the pressure on the gas pedal and roll up to a stop man, you, me and anyone else pushing it. Life is too short and humans far too frail to maintain 100% at all times, indefinitely.
