I used to get to do this every week. Relax at the beginning of the week, look through the photos on my phone to reflect on a busy week, recall what I had gotten up to, and discover what I had done that night that went far too late. Time has altered as schedule conspires to have me only get to steem for this every couple weeks.
I did so much damn work on so many things you KNOW I got my hands dirty again. Bringing on new opportunity while you try and do all the stuff you did before and then some.....sometimes you have to make a mess to clean one up.
Along the work line, I did get to climb through a haunted tomb of an attic. So I got that going for me....
The work was necessary though so one can afford too many damn blueberries. We are coming to the end of prime berry season and I have enough to earn wifepoints by giving them to other people. Little one made some blueberry muffins from some of the yield of a pleasant hour and a bit on the farm.
There was some me time as I got back to training jiu jitsu regularly again...kinda. I do need to train more and build back up the hours I spend doing it. So much fun, so cool to learn, healthy as anything and less likelihood I will snap on someone who feels compelled to feed me some bullshit! ;) Another year and another stripe. A black belt is a white belt who never quit.
There wasn't as much sailing as I would prefer but that is returning this week as well. What a break of the weekly routine in such a grand fashion.
I did also get to play a little golf in the most competitive family tourney of the year. I didn't take home the prize this year but broke 100 and had an amazing time.
Of COURSE there was a little beer. Afterall, it is summer, I have a status of Beerologist to uphold, and @detlev & the crew went from fun token to stakable to proof of stake through crowdfunding. I'll drink a nice bold sour to that!
I did wander around a nice town enough to crest 10k @actifit steps and take some big shots. It helps you live in the moment next time when you take a look at some of the neat angles you will see if you just look up from your rut!
There was a good amount of daddying and taxi duty as there was literally 4 baseball games and 2 practices in the last 6 days to end the season. Nothing to complain about though as it is mostly lounging in a camping chair with beer in the waterbottle.
I am apparently in the pepper business this year. You can check out the garden and pepper box I added this summer here https://steemit.com/gardenjournal2019/@zekepickleman/zeke-s-family-garden-midsummer-progress I am most curious as to how the Ghost Peppers will turn out. Among the hottest on the planet, will these add some serious heat to my hot sauce? Stay tuned.....
Maybe a little spoiler alert is in order but I have a neat idea to combine art and garden even if you are a hack with pedestrian equipment. I bring the rain soon with something along these lines.
Looking back on this pic brings me back a few months, reminds me I never really finished the story, and will be given the chance to relive this crazy spectacle again at a festival in a couple weeks. Could be some serious fun again.
