Art Machine, trying to be a person


bouncing back a little bit after today

Emi and I had to move 12 cubic meters of firewood to a makeshift enclosure so it doesn't get rained on tomorrow and get all wet and awful. We worked all day today, and neither of us are in Good physical condition, so we had our work cut out for us. But we both did what we could, taking breaks when we needed them, and we got all but two of the bags situated before the mosquitoes broke out and made us wanna call it quits.

I don't know HOW my body allowed me to work for so long when some days I can barely get around the house, but once we got back inside and brain and body realized it didn't have to be strong any more, I broke ALL the way down. A shower and a nap helped immensely though, and now I'm more or less Present again. It's 11pm and my body is exhausted, but my brain is not in the mood for sleep, so I took a bit of medicine and will wait for my brain to give up and let us all rest.

Tomorrow is a day off, which is good because I won't be capable of doing ANYthing tomorrow, much less anything approaching work. Monday might be out of the question, too, but we'll see. I hate falling even more behind in my work and money is so tight as it is, so if I CAN work, I WILL work.
