Maybe We'll Have to Blow it Up?
I’ve decided a backhoe is a very useful tool to have--if you know how to run it, that is. Yesterday, we moved my shed from the building site to over by the trailer. Since it was built on skids, the Diesel Mechanic was able to wrap a chain around the front of the building and then attach it to the hoe and then drag it (boy, nothing like a mechanic wrapping a chain around a hoe to get your blog lots of traffic). Unfortunately, it all happened so fast that I wasn’t able to grab my camera, so you’ll just have to believe me when I say the building looked kind of benevolent as it glided across the luscious pasture. Like maybe it was out for a stroll. Or, if you like horror movies, maybe it was on a mission of evil. Anyway, it looked pretty weird.
Once we got it all level, the Diesel Mechanic was ready to tackle some more projects. First, he tried to tear down the old town water tank, which has been empty for several years. The darn thing leaks like a sieve, but barely a wee little pebble fell from it when he tried to demolish it. Tomorrow, we’re going to cut the fence and bring the cat up from his place (bulldozer, not meow) and try to knock it down again. I tried to convince the Diesel Mechanic that we should blow it up, but he said that would probably be some violation of the Patriot Act. Isn’t everything, though?
Since there was no satisfaction to be had with the tank, the Diesel Mechanic went and knocked over a dead fir tree with the backhoe and then we called it a day. I spent the rest of the afternoon replacing all the contents of the shed, which ended up taking me a couple hours. I discovered a couple boxes of china I got from my grampa’s family and took out a few pieces to investigate. I think it might be expensive, but I decided what the heck, I’m going to use it. Plus, I really liked how it contrasts with the tools in the shed. I feel like an old-timey pioneer lady holding on to one last symbol of civility on the wild frontier.
Anyway, I didn’t get to the deck yesterday and I probably won’t for a several days, but I’ve got a guy coming out this weekend to help me install a hot water heater so I can finally bathe regularly. If you live around here, you ought to be just as excited about that as I am.
Blow it up.
BLOW IT UP!!!!

Reality is that unless you can move out on your own, or with your grandmother, or into a friend’s family, you’re stuck. Focus on the good things about this new house (trust me, I find it hard most of the time to find good things about the one we’re moving to) and your new situation.
