Partially. What I could carry in one load.

Ugh. I'm tired. Glad to be home. Thinking of having a hammock.

I know you are dog tired

your home now
and I hope your weather is yard friendly for your relaxing outside
 Quoting: aether


Yeah. It's a special kind of exhaustion. Those who have never done it, will never know how hard this kind of work can be when it is 'go time'. But the 'down time' more than makes up for it...

I think I will sit out here until I go to bed tonight.

The weather is perfect.

Re: Mad World
In the Cairo museum and also in other museums around the world there are examples of fine stoneware which were found in a cache at the ancient Egyptian site of Saqqara. They show the unmistakable marks of a manufactured lathe item, and yet are believed to have been created prior to the existence of the dynastic Egyptians.

Yes. The Titans being forced underground, when Jupiter overthrew Saturn.
 Quoting: Ava9



“The catastrophe of 3147 BC involved more than the disappearance of Saturn from the north sky. It involved the near "collision" of 8 planets. What most likely happened in 3147 BC is that Saturn, together with Earth, Mars, Mercury, Venus, Neptune, and Uranus, "ran into" Jupiter, which was then located probably at 0.7 AU from the Sun.”

Re: Mad World
In mainland Greece, of 150 cities noted before the 8th century BC, only 13 survived to 650 BC. The same scale of destruction was experienced in Anatolia, the Middle East, and Italy. The period of 800 BC to 600 BC also saw the largest overseas colonization by the Greeks, as well as the virtual depopulation of the Eastern Mediterranean region and parts of Europe. De Grazia in The Iron Age of Mars (2009) estimates that of a population of 200,000,000 before 800 BC, only 5 million survived. The earlier level would not again be reached until AD 1900.

Re: Mad World
I went to go look at art and they just so happened to have a music performance right before. They played Fawkes the Phoenix. Then the art show had like 20-30 canopic jars which were amazing designs. Also fresco secco

[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

Fresco-secco (or a secco or fresco finto) is a wall painting technique where pigments mixed with an organic binder and/or lime are applied onto a dry plaster.[1] The paints used can e.g. be casein paint, tempera, oil paint, silicate mineral paint. If the pigments are mixed with lime water or lime milk and applied to a dry plaster the technique is called lime secco painting. The secco technique contrasts with the fresco technique, where the painting is executed on a layer of wet plaster.

The last supper and sistine chapel are frescos. It was an interesting mix, lol

But sometimes it comes back. And is hard to control.

TBH...I have felt rather 'seduced' by the Darkside for a while now.

I see both the appeal and reasoning it exists. It's hard to maintain balance when pushed.

And get this

[link to www.greekmythology.com]

The Gigantomachy was probably the most important battle that happened in Greek mythology. It was a fight between the Giants or Gigantes, sons of Gaea and Uranus, and the Olympian gods who were trying to overthrow the old religion and establish themselves as the new rulers of the cosmos.

Many of the Giants were buried under islands. In fact, it was believed that the earthquakes and the volcanic eruptions were caused when the Giants moved in their tombs.

Five Pacific islands vanish from sight as sea levels rise

Going, going, gone. Five of the Solomon Islands have been swallowed whole by rising sea levels, offering a glimpse into the future of other low-lying nations.

Sea levels in the Solomon Islands have been climbing by 7 millimetres per year over the last two decades, due to a double whammy of global warming and stronger trade winds.


Last year and some before the Solomon Islands had many quakes.

It would be an entire day. I've never been away from them more than a few hours.

Yes, helping someone else is good, and I like to do that as much as possible. I think the part I'm struggling with is that it is slightly self serving as well, because it would be slightly reminiscent to the way I was, before I was a mom.
