Big job update
It's morning again, the boy is napping on my back in the ergo sling. Great device. He had some green beans and peaches for breakfast. Chunks, he will basically not accept "baby food" anymore.
Spent yesterday getting some yard supplies from a kind family who are moving to a condo. We got a deck furniture set and a grill that hooks up to the natural gas supply on our deck. So that was nice. Also a pitchfork, adze, maul, and mattock. Just in case we ever need those.
We are also trying to get an 8x10 potting shed from Mendham to here. It was prefabbed in Vermont and is very well built. It comes apart easily into sections but I think we all underestimated the mass of an 8x10 wall made of 2x4's and plywood. It's in great shape, but we discovered an incipient colony of carpenter ants within the structure so much of the day was spent in removing them. Watching them frantically trying to evacuate their egg cases made me wonder what kind of a karma burden I was taking on. Oh well, circle of life and that stuff.
Boy is stirring. Must post n scoot.

If you're ever stuck for anything to do with 'pitchfork adze maul and mattock' you could always take up live role-playing and use them to hit people dressed as wizards. Or something.
(The adze is the sharp metal spoony thing for digging out canoes, right?)
