Tuesday: A day to: rest up!
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group gives Kossacks a safe place to check in, a daily diary where we
can let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, earthquakes, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It also allows us to find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, earthquakes etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a Kosmail and ask to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!
We do have a diary schedule. But, when you are ready to write that diary, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMOM a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FloridaSNMOM is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.
Monday: Crimson Quillfeather
Tuesday: ejoanna
Wednesday: Pam from Calif
Thursday: art ah zen
Friday: FloridaSNMOM
Saturday: FloridaSNDad

So over the weekend I decided that Mr. EJ and I should go out and prune down a tree that, while attractive, was getting too tall. I thought: maybe a couple hours.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
More like 5 hours. It wasn’t hot outside, actually there was a cool wind. (Of course the wind makes us worry about fires, so that’s a mixed blessing.) And once we were into it, it was hard to stop.
We crept in just before dusk. I crashed on the couch. Everything in my body ached! I’d (over) done it again. Will I never learn??
Now I spotted these conveyances online. I’m tempted. . .
. . . but the main problem is that my garden is on a lot of different levels. With one of these, I’ll probably roll down a hill and. . . shudder-to-think.
Oh well. I’m taking a few days off from garden work (I think) to recover. I do love gardening, but I just don’t know when to stop and back off.
What activities do you love but overdo? Just asking for a friend. . .
