Moving the furniture
When it comes to the changes of season, all that really changes is the date. Today was my start to summer. We led it with more than 100 people running by the end of the lane going to who knows where. And then with that out of the way I started moving the deck furniture from down to up. This stuff is heavy. I say that year after year because it does not get any easier. But, I move the big reclining chair first and then the four individual chairs and that I stopped I did try to maneuver the big table into position but I realized that one of us was going to win. An object with four legs probably. And so I waited until I had someone else to help bear the load. All done now. Nobody got injured. This does not mean that I will spend afternoons laying in the sun but if someone stops by we can suggest having a coffee inside or outside. The option is now available. I should have known when I bought furniture that the wind would not move around. If the wind can’t move it neither can I without effort. What else of note? Well the weather is getting warmer before long, we will start getting summer visitors. A matter of weeks. Who will come to visit? I never know. My life is filled with surprises. Maybe someone will come with a dog. That would be a nice change. Someone else did stop by yesterday with food and that is also a great way to come and visit me. You know, from time to time. I am pleased that the outside work is taking shape. The lawn mower has a new battery and sooner or later we will get the choking part figured out. It’s been an easy seven years of maintenance. I wish I knew more about internal combustion engines but the need was never there. I spent three decades following the electrical cord around the aired. Also although I live in the country I have rarely had to shovel the snow. Part of climate change? It might be. I will do an analysis someday and when I do I will add it in here. In mentioning that battery it cost more than I expected but still came within our budget. Is there anything that costs less than before?
