So it has been almost a month since the last blog post.  And time is flying by! At some point in time as I was in my daily blur of running and building it dawned on me that all those twits using Twitter might be onto something. Their posts are only one line long! Way shorter then a blog.

Of course as I kept thinking I came around to the logical conclusion that even short posts need to be posted. And since I can barely keep my blog alive, maybe I did not need to add another form of social media to be socially awkward on right now.  So instead as my mind wanders I just think up Tweets I would post, if I had my act together enough to always be posting.

And today for your enjoyment I present a month of what I would have said on Twitter ~ With some photos, cause lets be honest, sometimes 140 characters is just not enough.  Oh and I am randomly making up hash tags with no practical understanding of how they work. #havingfun #dealwithit

Ran all the race dogs today, 2 teams out before noon. Now to let the puppies free run! #falltraining

This fall has 2 main objectives – prep dogs for Iditarod and build cabin to live in. Should keep me busy! #balancingact

Thankful for the good weather, wonder how long it will last #fallbuilding

Off to town with the trailer to get another load of lumber #ratchetstrapsrule

I am now a regular at SBS**. Love that the yard crew loads your trailer. Wonder how the yard crew feels about me & my crazy loads. #shoplocal
**SBS is Spenard Builders Supply, a local building supply and lumber yard

Headed to town on a supply/lumber run #ratchetstrapsrule

(repeat above like 2 dozen times, then….)

Yipee! Guess who is going to town again? #beingsarcastic #ratchetstrapsrule

Great News!  Guess who is honored to be part of the Manmat team again this winter #thanks #bestmushinggear #manmat

Wish it would Rain – NOT #fallbuilding

Apparently dogs could care less about running in the pouring rain. Mushers on the other hand… but you gots to do it.  #falltraining

WE HAVE FLOORS, yes I know I am shouting, this is great news #fallbuilding

Everyone gets a new house before me #dogsfirst

Have mapped out the best coffee huts with jumbo trailer sized drive through lots, I might just be getting this expediter thing down. #fallbuilding

Another trip to town, fun fun #fallbuilding #sarcasm

Running 2 teams a day with the quad all month, my right thumb is numb #musherproblems

Went out to dinner, can only enjoy so many meals in the woodshed while it rains before you want to eat at a table. #fallbuilding #rainsucks

Dogs looking great, and I am getting to the point in training when I am beyond sick of the quad #msuherproblems #letitsnow

Would it surprise anyone to know that I going to town on another supply lumber run? #ratchetstrapsrule #fallbuilding

Is it bad that the woman at SBS recognized me from my voice over the phone?  #fallbuilding  #shoplocal

HANDLER FOUND!!!!   #happydance

Raining again, time to run dogs #falltraining

With walls going up you can really start to visualize the new cabin #fallbuilding

OMG town again, gone more times this month then I did all summer #fallbuilding

Eating Justin’s Chocolate Hazelnut Butter from the jar. Don’t judge, it has been a  long week. #chocolateforsanity

 

So I think we all see the general pattern, I run dog and run to town. But with each running day we get a stop closer to our 2 main objectives, and that makes it all worth while  (at least that is what I keep telling myself)  Till then it is lots of chocolate, coffee, and hard work come rain or shine.

And since I have wisely decided not to add twitter to my life, may I invite everyone to check out Jodi Bailey on Facebook. Where I do tend to post more often.

Now (not surprisingly) it is time for me to get back to work!!!!   #falltraining #fallbuilding
