Which?
Sometimes, this is how I feel when I have a post idea.

I actually just trashed one that on hindsight, felt it added nothing and subtracted much. I’ll leave some of my developing … hatred? … of “things” to myself.
It’s hard sometimes to keep from spewing out in public. Don’t we all get enough of that most of our waking hours everywhere we look?
Not that I’m all in for rainbows and unicorns …
This is much better:

Sometimes an occasional spew helps avert a full-on explosion.
That’s what teapots do…hisssss…’til you move it off the heat.
Then enjoyed what you brewed.
holy shit. can you tell I haven’t been to sleep yet?
Ya gotta take the good with the bad.
Variety is the spice of life.
Not diversity, variety.
Throw it out there, and see what ya catch….
Here’s a very fine list of what to do and what to stop doing. I’m in harmony with about 3/4s of this list and there’s a couple that simply don’t apply.

Excellent article and his blog is full of good advice too. Thank you, Tom.
What are “activity storms”?
I’m not sure. Maybe a lot of useless activities that keep people extremely occupied giving them something to talk about… all the while ignoring the purposeful activities of protecting your property, your peace and sanity?
Here’s my next activity storm.
Coming out of the woods this morning, while sitting here at my desk, a teeny, tiny tick was walking on my leg.
Picked it off, put it on my desk and looked at it with a glass.
Yep. Teeny – so I torched it with a Bic.
1st up, my mutt Shannon got a dose of Advantix II.
Next, I blew all the dead leaves out from under all the decks.
Here in a moment I’m firing up my propane fueled Burgess Fogger and the entire property will be cloaked in dense white smoke.
Always something to do out here in the hinters….
