The part of me that wants to travel has finally succeeded at negotiating with the part of me that wants to stay. The deal is to do something with all the trash that I've accumulated over time with the intention to eventually recycle it. That and the gates that are needed in a few areas so that they can be left closed and cattle from the neighbors won't come in to destroy all the work that has been done with plants and diversity here.
A lot of junk, but it's possible...
I had not felt very productive lately and just wanted to run away from it all, but today after playing some music and telling myself i wasn't going to even try to build anything, i started out of nowhere getting very obsessive with placing bottles on the road.
My conclusion is that one can get naturally productive when we take away the pressure and just do things for fun.
I'm pretty much running out of glass bottles now, but tomorrow I'll search... There should be some more around.
It felt good doing something repetitive for a change. Seems grinding can be a very positive thing when you catch the right rhythm.
Finally, a gate for the main entrance. Still needs some adjustments, but overall it's pretty sturdy and opens easy enough.
Finished the day with a small potatoe harvest from some plants that were killed by the frost. They were very tasty. Before i leave i might harvest a good amount for a goodbye meal, but i also want to leave some in the soil so they can reproduce and colonize more.
