Gardening day plus sweat

I have just spent the last 6 hours working on my yard, mowing, weed eating, blowing, edging, dealing with moles, weeding the flower beds, and lastly the dreadful cleaning out of the shed, which has never been done in about four years. I think it was the last task on the day of work that did me in physically. I had dust on and in me, bugs everywhere including a mouse that made me shriek twice (that was fun!). I still need to replant one of my flower pots and deal with some boxes, but not until after I take a bit of a break, which is what I am doing now.

I have been reading more of the Devil Dog Road by Mr. Mo and I must admit I had no idea books of such low literary quality could be published. It is so bad I think I will write the publisher and tell them that it needs some serious revisions. There are grammar and spelling mistakes worse than in one of my stories and this is in a published book! I know I make mistakes too, but I would have figured a decent editor would have caught these. I wondering if he even had an editor. I must admit that the poor quality makes it a little distracting to read. As far as the content, however, it seem a bit ragged but interesting. It is a book from a secular perspective. I can tell that this guy is not an Evangelical by any stretch, but that is ok. He seems to have some faith from his Catholic background and I am curious to see where his story leads and how he will ultimate fall into and overcome masturbation and pornography addictions. His story is not at all like my own, but there is a level of realism to it that I find intriguingly.

I have started the other book, but I am not as interested in that one at this point. I think I will read it when I finish the one I have now. I have masturbated again, but not at the computer, so that is a good sign. This it for now!
