My Life - and nothing fibrous! Sob!

8 am
    I’ve got to think, and making use of morning pages to do it seems as good an idea as any. My brain is disturbingly filled up with a combination of Woodstock, Henry James, and Mockingbird. The Woodstock because K is obsessively reading about it and keeps reading excerpts, even when I go into the kitchen and start crashing about doing things so that it seems it would be obvious that I am not listening, he keeps reading away. I finally had to tell him that G needed to concentrate on the college survey she was trying to fill out, and that he would have to save the reading for later. Henry James because I am finally to an interesting part of Portrait of a Lady - she seems finally poised to do something about her lousy marriage. And Mockingbird because I am reading that in between everything else. It is very soothing, familiar.
    What I really need to think about is all the stuff I have to do: woodlot stuff, work stuff, 350 stuff, house stuff and I’m sure I’m missing a bunch.
* Woodlot
o find the form needed to get the $ from the state for the green certification
o get a copy of the trust
o get info about the windmills out to the whole gang
o facilitate whatever communication is needed to make the cutting decisions
* work
o just be sure I am ready for today’s lab
o get lab group info pulled together
o send out contact emails to the 2 labs
o read new lab write up
* 350
o Put up posters
o Send out message urging folks to all use group email for all messages
o Get our info onto 350.org
o Update the local 350 site
* House
o Make sure all is ok with basement work
o Call chimney sweep
o Get chimney cap
o Call re windows
o Call re insulation
o Finish pulling insulation out of walls – do I need to do that in attic?
Ok, so any idea of either meditation or writing more is gone. I need to get started on all this. And leave here by about 9 so I can do the postering. I can finish reading the lab and do some house calls from work.

Jenny,

What are you doing with Windmills?
I live in one of the best Windmill areas in the USA- Madison County NY

I would love a Windmill for out farm.

My family owns property near North Adams Ma, on the west side of florida mountain. A group is planning to put windmills up along the florida mountain ridge and family members wanted to see where they would be. I also think windmills are a good thing. I know it will have an impact there, and I may come to wish they could be elsewhere, but they are better than many alternatives.
