Away from home,,,
as one of my Kayaky Compadres said “Feels like we are working on the Devils backporch”. Its FRELLIN HOT!!! like 108 index, and where we are, ZERO SHADE,,,
two more days of it.
Bossman passed out cash for “eatin’ ” this morning, and once we were situated on the job and things were starting, HE SPLIT,,,
LOL And if I could’ve, I’d’ve!!!
Did I mention its HOT?
BUT, I found a Chinese place near the hotel, and joy of joys, they have honest to Dog Sushimi, mmmmm Nomnomnom,,,,

Tuna Salmon and some white fleshed one I am not familiar with, but was very sweet and tasty.
And of course the other meats and NOODS,,,, Gotta have the NOODs or it ain’t Chinese (and I know, the sushimi isn’t Chinese either, but when I find it I enjoy, relish it even.) Round three was a simple plate of nothing but Sushimi. I can eat on that to the point of pain, and by the time I make the door after paying the bill, ready for more. That ginger and wasabi do wonders for my digestion.
I’m worried about my kids,,, I probably shouldn’t be, but after yester eve’s nightmare, I am very much worried about them. I know there is not a danged thing I can do from here, and must trust my Da to take care of the feed schedule (and any debacles that may occur.)
But I don’t like it and there is some small anxiety over it.
I will say that Cozzie was acting a little more like his usual bouncy smiley self this morning, but the first sound of another dog bark and he ran back in the house. He will get over this, and trying to not reinforce his fear has me flummoxed. My being gone for three days is either going to help him grow his spine back, or turn him into a quivering anxiety filled mess. Still, He is young, and corrections can be made: the timing of this is absolute shit though.
As for working tomorrow,,, We are going to try to split the day up tomorrow, early morning to noon, 3-4 hours break (SIESTA!) then back until “Can’t See”. This in reality is a 4 day job, and we have only 2 days to do it. the half today, all tomorrow, and then wrap up on Thursday with drive home. Its a 6 hour drive and I really don’t wanna get home near midnight that day. The sooner we can get this wrapped up the better, BUT, I am also not going to push so hard in this heat that someone ends up hospitalized. And that is a very real possibility.
More laters, gotta shower, and call it a night. Fat tummy from Chinese, tired from long day,
Live
Learn
Laugh
LOVE
LOAD





Next time (and, alas, I fear there WILL be a Next Time) the Feral Farkwhytes appear… don’t “miss.” SSS.
I do NOT like saying that. But Reality is not ox-ideal, alas.
Whiners might whine. They could have solved the problem more to their liking. They failed. Their problem. No pity – or not very much – for self-inflicted wounds. Pity the animals might have to pay the price for the farkwhytes failures.
