Negotiations

opened up that can of worms with the owner of the boat last night.

fingers crossed that he is open to holding things for a spell. Not that I couldn’t ‘find’ the money now,,, its just a situation of “eat or not” sort of thing. And that empty belly side wouldn’t be just mine: I has fourfeets that would be staring at empty bowls for a week if I jumped the shark too quickly.

That ain’t gonna happen,,, they eat even if I don’t: always have, always will. . (and its not like I would starve, I have preps set aside,,, thats not what they are for though.)

I know y’all think I am bit nuts for the kayak thing, but as i have said, they are my line to sanity in a world gone mad. When I am out and about on water, things slow down (except on whitewater) and I get a chance to pull the soul out and look at things from a different angle. See what needs mended/repaired/cleaned off. It is most definitely a spiritual thing and why I call it the “Church of the two bladed paddle” (not original, already a website of that name and not by my doing.)

but like a church, some have comfy pews others are like being on the rack of medieval times,,, A kayak is the pew in this sense. Lizzy is a great boat, but she is not the boat for me. Something about her just rubs wrong, She is fast, but she is NOT stable, and there are times where I want that stability so I can sit there and watch mama-deer and babes playing at the waterline, or play peek-a-boo with the muskrats. Lizzy doesn’t want to sit, she wants to run.

lol,,, here I am justifying putting the Liz up for sale,,, Don’t you just love looking into my circular logic plays?

Anywhoos, I don’t know for certain how this is going to play out, but I am in negotiations with the current owner, and its looking good. I am going ahead and listing Lizzy and the Viz for sale today, and then, I THINK, I am going to join B and M at the Pigeon for a weekend of fast moving water play. I haven’t made arrangments for the fourfeets yet, but that shouldn’t be an issue, they are easy to keep happy (keep the foodbowl full, the house warm and dry, and alls good till Dad gets home,,,,)

I haven’t made up my mind on that last, and part of me is saying ‘stay put. save the cash for the real goal’ but there is that part of me that needs time with others of like mind as well. Been a few weekends of solo Dio, and those lead to that circular logic thing kicking in (ADHD with a dash of Autism tossed in for flavor)

sigh,,, Decisions decision decisions,,, choose wisely as they say,,, Not sure how wise I am being, but,,,,
