I'm finally getting around to lining up new doctors here in WV. I hate filling out the forms though with questions like male, female, trans male, trans female, other, don't know, straight, gay, lesbian, it goes on and on.
My house project is moving along. House is totally gutted except floors and ceiling. That will come a little at a time as i fix and relevel the floor. So much was done wrong before, so I am glad to be starting from scratch. The previous owner must have had access to 4' 2x4's because many of the walls were made with those pieces. Plumbing and electric were another nightmare. It will all be replaced! We are still working out the details of our new floor plan. Kind of exciting but daunting at the same time. Much to do!
I have been taking a few breaks and exploring some of the property. There are many shallow caves which are very interesting. Went for a 2 mile hike along the east property line on Thursday. It follows a small creek in the bottom of a hollar (valley). I cant help but to look for flakes of gold in the creek. Thanks Lori! When the weather gets nicer I might try a little panning. 900' down to the bottom and 900' back up. I came back exhausted! My girl muscles and being 63yrs old has really slowed me down. I keep scooping out places for new horse trails. Much of the land is so steep I would not feel comfortable ridding down the hills. Even walking, I hang on to small trees while sliding down.
Everyone has been so nice to me. Smoking is still a big thing here so many of the women look a little rough which helps me to pass more easily.
Weather has been crazy warm for January. High 50's and yesterday 65. This is not normal for here. Even saw a bat flying around Thursday.
Life is good.
