Pathways

Well, my pathway is actually a drive. As noted yesterday, I'm a bit preoccupied with it.  It seems the most unrewarding thing to do in the world to "weed" the driveway.  That step is necessary though to apply the salt I referred to yesterday.  Let me note: it is v. time consuming.   So, that's what I spent a couple of hours doing today.  With a couple of hours weeding, and mowing the lawn added.

So, another weekend passes without a decent road ride.  The thing is, I feel I need to get the garden in orderm, or at least weeded.  Is this a  diversion tactic?  No, I'm way behind. and all the rain hasn't helped.  The thing is, I need to get the garden in order, becasue otherwise I feel resentful.  Eventuallly I'll get the balance right.  But for now, I have to balance one against the other.

A primary reason is I'm trying to work on the nice "energy" in my outdoor space, which probably sounds a bit naff, but its part of achieving the harmony thing in terms of what is important to me.

My garden is not is good as I have had it.  This if I am honest, I find *annoying*.  It also applys to my physical body!

Oh yes, and update re the border "issue" with my neighbour.  Well, I wrote and had "peer reviewed" what I thought was quite a brillant letter that I was going to deliver in their letterbox  - last week.  Then  I decided with the balloon tragedy, the timing wasn't right, given the Pilot is a close neighbour - due to the geography of where my neighbours house is - actually in the next street, being on the back end of my property.  Also, the occupations of my neighbours and the fact that Carterton is 2 degrees removed, meant it certainly wasn't the right time to put the letter in their letterbox.

Now, in my quest for harmony, I've decided to let it go - which is not to say I don't think what I wrote in the letter stands, becasue I do, both from a "good neighbour" and a legal perspective.  However, dod I want to spend my enegry on that stuff? No.  Even though it did piss me off.  And unfortunately, it means the only conversations I have with the back neighbour tend to centre on how their actions "concern me".

I did achieve a "tan line" today, although it was "unintentional" and not in an area of the body I was seeking to secure a tan line - a side affect of wearing a fitting t shirt.  I figure "fitting" within the confines of my garden,  reminds me I have to make it become baggy.  Plus, other than cleaning rags, I need to put my "old" but hardly used "Healthy New Zealanders" t-shirts to good use! - I have a few...but tend not to want to wear them in public becasue they look like giant compliment slips for the Ministry of Health.  Buggared if I know how you get a tan on your lower back when you are facing the sun for most of the time?!!!

Someone else who likes rainbows!

That omg feeling, sense of awe, is important, I reckon ;-)

Anyway, the quest for tan lines in the right places, and harmony continues.....
