Favourite quote

What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.
It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead.

Man Flu

Well not quite, but bad time to get a cold (cough, sniffles and sneezing).
It is rapidly turning into winter and temperatures are plummeting.
The doctors refuse to see me but charged $50 to say "have a test and wait until the symptoms disappear".
So I quickly ran off to the testing station and had the long straw stuck up my nose.
A day later I get a Negative for Covid, but no meds for the symptoms.
Symptoms diminish to just an hour in the cold mornings.

At home with just a couple of kids home, I decided it's a good day to dress up.

 

Today I did a bit of learning.
A few months I watched a YouTube video......
Today...
I rope ascended up a tree and over a branch.
Grazed my knuckles and arms going over the branch
           note to self - next time don't rope over a branch.
Once up the tree, I fumbled and dropped my descender to the ground 3 meters below my perch.
          note to self - DO NOT DROP DESCENDER.

Tomorrow's learning, will be up a tree with a chainsaw 😃
