Had some fun today. Spent the afternoon helping in the Carpentry Shop at the St. Charles Missouri First Capitol for their 250 year anniversary celebration. Our turning club built the treadle lathe (I was not part of that, schedule conflict) but had time to come out and demo on it today. First go with analog lathes. Lol. Lots of fun but my legs are tired. Huge respect for all those who worked this craft back in the day. #wood #woodturner #woodturning #lathe #treadle #treadlelathe #tired #wornout #stcharlesmo #stcharles #carpenteryshop #demo #demoday #celebration (at First Missouri State Capitol State Historic Site) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxqWnS9jCDz/?igshid=rp7vuwqjt3bp

Wow.  It’s been awhile.  A giant snow in St. Louis and all major roads being generally unsafe and my house being extremely cozy help to make this a good day to get caught up on a lot of things. One of those things is Tumblr.  So...hi.

Last time I posted, I was in a total bad place.  Things aren’t bad anymore.  I’m working through stuff while I’m prepping to present two sessions for a district-wide conference as well as coach a hopeful state-qualifying swim team.  Life has been busy, but it hasn’t been bad.

I’ve been reading.  Reading a ton.  I’m on the 3rd book for the Outlander series, but still love Hunger Games more than anything.  @katnissdoesnotfollowback​, I’m slowly making time for your fics.  I haven’t forgotten about my promise to you.

I watched one episode of that Marie Kondo show and feel the need to get rid of 80% of all of the things in my home.  75% of the stuff I want to get rid of belong to my child and are her toys.  So...there’s that.

I shoveled about 8″ of snow off of my driveway today and my body is finally feeling it. I’m hungry and tired and just want to take a shower and sleep next to my fireplace on the couch while the snow falls outside.

This is a hodge-podge of thoughts.  I missed my Tumblr friends.  It’s been too long.

I’d love to reconnect.  Shoot me a message if you want.

I just love a hazy morning sometimes, it creates such a surreal atmosphere.. a dream like quality.. This was a couple weeks ago at Busch Wildlife. I'm a little behind on going through photos! . . . . . . . #Buschwildlifesanctuary #buschwildlife #stcharles #stcharlesmo #Missouri #missouriphotographer #Landscape #landscapelover #LandscapeLovers #landscapephotography #nature #naturelover #surreal #hazy #foggy #peaceful #godscreation #reflection #lake #trees #Supertramp #SuperTramp86 #winter2023 (at Busch Wildlife Conservation Area) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpSkWmjrp-u/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
