any job worth doing...

I spent the greater part of this sunny morning in the beginning phases of a somewhat major sanding and painting project. I'm pretty sure I have never done anything this well and thoroughly in my entire life.
Once again, a repetitious nature, developing a personal and efficient (two handed!) system, immediate results, working with my hands, and heading towards physical completion made me feel amazing and as though I'd perhaps earned my right to yet another delicious meal and all of nature's majesty at my fingertips.
