Day 5.
Sick. Corona going around here again, I didn't bother to find out. This particular run in is extreme body pains, headaches, sore throat, coughing but not incessant, weakness, loss of appetite. The ability to lay in bed and that's about it.
I'm finally starting to feel a little better. Sick of laying in bed, I went out to the property today to spread a bag of grass seed I bought previously. A couple of the pads are small lakes. I'll be getting pipe and renting a mini trackhoe when I get better. I just have no energy right now. I lasted out there about 15 minutes, just long enough to spread the seed and leave. I need about 4 more bags to finish everything out. Perfect time to do it, everything is wet and there is rain in the forecast.
I also found another place to rent me a dozer for 24 hours - that's about all I want to spend on it. Pricey, having it delivered, using it and having it picked back up. Necessary, but pricey. I see no good reason to pay someone else 3 or 4 times what I'll pay, however, for the same work. It's nothing more than going back and forth along the entire 7 acres and leveling the ground.
I have far too much to do and really don't have time to be sick. Lol, that's funny I guess but it's true. Get this stuff done so I can find another job and get back to work.
I really need to get that bridge done before the wood starts warping. And it would be great if I had the energy right now to go ahead and pound those fence posts into the ground, the ground is super wet and would be easy. Not to mention the temps have been much nicer since the rain came. And here I am, stuck at home, doing nothing. I sort of resolved myself a while back that living around kids that are going to public school and daycare? I'm going to get sick more often.
Yeah, no, I haven't looked for a job beyond perusing online applications and driving around town seeing what's here.
The elimination of employment has closed the need for another loan to finish the portion of the project I need done in order to open the park. Really, the time line is closing in on me. The electrical lines will be installed in less than a month.
The septic, however, has not been installed yet. First it was the manufacturer not having the tanks done in time, then it is this rain and the fact that if they try to drive the truck over to the intended site, it will get stuck. I texted him earlier asking about next week.
It's the middle of the day and I'm laying here yawning as if it's 11:00 pm.
Time for a nap.
