As thrilled as I am at the birth of my son, there is a downside. Since Tuesday I have felt utterly useless. I’ve tried to help, but have managed to either be all thumbs about it or expend lots of energy achieving nothing.

I thought I was pretty competent and helpful with Emily, but I have been neither with JD. Did I forget it all?

I am a little under the weather, which might account for some of it, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just rust and I will shake it off. I sure hope so.

So in an effort to not have the day pass without doing something worthwhile, I went out and started cleaning my shed out. Jeez, what a mess. I’m going to have to be utterly ruthless in my decisons to dispose of things. Otherwise I will just ending up sorting through and stuffing a bunch of crap into every nook and cranny. Which is not the point. The point would be to pare it down so that I have what I need and can find it when I need it.

It’s the least I can do.
