Tribal Days

The best part of being home is having friends and family nearby -my tribe, if you will. Over the weekend we spent a couple of nights hanging around campfires. It's an activity that humans have been doing for thousands of years. No wonder it feels so good.

I'm a funny mix of extrovert and introvert. Being alone doesn't bother me at all. There are times I crave and need it. On the flip side, it's great to be with people sometimes. The key for me is finding that balance.

I'm a pretty independent person and hate to bother people. However, it's been pointed out to me that really should ask for help more. That's exactly what I've decided to do. Monday I actually had help with my water line project. We moved a lot of dirt, rock, and tree roots. Progress is being made.

Just as important, I'm getting some other ideas on how to approach certain problems. It's a relief to have the help. The clock is running and winter is coming. With the progress I we made on Monday I'm feeling a bit better about getting things sorted out in time.
