The words of wise men are like goads, and masters of these collections are like well-driven nails; they are given by one Shepherd. But beyond this, my son, be warned: the writing of many books is endless, and excessive devotion to books is wearying to the body. The conclusion, when all has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person. -King Solomon

Country Life
Well. We got a dump truck to deliver a load of soil here this morning so that we can start doing a bit of landscaping. We built our house last year and didn't have the time or money to do any of it then; you can see in the photo how it needs it. So the truck came and was about to dump the soil on the tarps we had laid out when two wheels went throught the top of our septic tank. Oh the joys of living in the country. Fortunately the driver managed to get the truck out and he helped me move the tarps so that he could dump in another spot.
When my husband got home we discovered that the pile of dirt was just where the log truck will have to go on Saturday to deliver our load of wood for next winter. So we have to get a neighbor with a tractor to move the dirt because there's no way we would get it done by hand by Saturday. And the excavator guy will be coming tomorrow to see about fixing the septic tank.
Yippee.
