Waiting

Despite a quick foray into near spring-like temperatures mid-week, no boat-work or woodworking ensued.

So, what do I do while waiting for the shoulder repair? Reading books (this week a history, a who-done-it, and a Stephen King novel), researching the next boat (yeah, I know, FINISH Gardens first!), resting soft tissue (aka napping), catching up with on-line small boat forum posts of interest, overthinking what needs doing on Gardens, and pondering the imponderables…

One of those imponderables is the internet forum phenomenon of people posting to threads when what they post adds nothing to or - worse - detracts from the discussion. Internet forums (regardless of the topic) are great for staying in touch with like-minded (sometimes not-so-like-minded) people, seeing what others are doing, problem solving, sharing project progress, asking questions and sometimes (too often) disagreeing and arguing. But, really, posting for the sake of posting without really contributing to a thread - and I don’t mean “thread drift” (accidental or otherwise)?

Okay, off the soapbox…

Looking forward to the intersection of a mended shoulder and spring. Could be a long wait…
