For the first time since Tuesday, I managed to shuffle for half a mile. Today's goal is one mile.

Pentoga Road

Life continues to progress on Pentoga Road and with the end of the week at hand, we're overjoyed that Sargie has both Saturday and Sunday off. We've talked of going to Rhinelander on Saturday, but other than that, we have absolutely NO plans. 

I continue to heal and am feeling better every day. I worked in the greenhouse yesterday transplanting pumpkins, squash, and some flowers.

The potting mix is so dry that I soak it in a pail of water first, then wring it out before filling the six-packs.

I hope to begin planting various vegetables in the garden next week, knowing that I'll have to occasionally cover each on those nights when it is frosty.

Sargie continues to be plagued with the after math of having the shingles. She's fine for most of the time, but occasionally, has shooting pains jolting through her side and lower back. She has cared for me all week without complaint and after a week of work, is worn out. I'll make sure she gets plenty of rest this weekend.

Unwrapping the four Boston ferns that will hang on the front porch this summer.

Sargie closed last night and wasn't home until well past 9 PM. She opens this morning, but thankfully, her week ends this afternoon at 5. 

I'm going to walk this morning and later, hope to work in the shop. There's not a lot I can do at this stage, so I just shuffle from one thing to the other. I never realized that daytime television was so boring.

Time to get this uploaded and listen to the news.

After all, a man's work is never done.

So are the tales from Pentoga Road...

I don't smoke, I don't drink, but I do chew toothpicks and only the flat variety will do. The stores in our area carry only the round ones, so I made an order from Amazon.com.
