I have to admit to a fair amount of disorientation these days. It is directly related to my circadian rhythms.
Here it is, a week into October, and today it was 86 degrees.
What?
I forget how long ago we had rain. The garden is an absolute disaster. I cannot bear to go out there. But I need to start cleaning it up for Fall. But Fall doesn't seem to want to arrive.
I still haven't put any new tasks on my Kanban board. Mostly because the most pressing one is ....
CLEAN UP THE GARDEN
I don't want to have to look at it.
Even though I did buy a new packet of sticky notes in pleasant pastel colors and everything. Beyond garden cleanup and raking acorns, I can't seem to put my finger on what to tackle next in my life.

I'm in serious need of some mulled cider and a piece of pumpkin bread.
And a colorful Kanban board that I can commit to.
Alas. Looks like I'll have to wait.
(So make yourself useful and clean up the garden in the meantime. Stop whining.)
You really do not know how often you skate on thin ice...
(Winter comes AFTER Fall you nit wit.)
Sigh.
(That's Charlie Brown's line. Don't plagiarize.)
This conversation is over.
(Oh no it's n
