Feeling better
I've managed to clean the sword and get a shower in. We still have running water so that's a good thing. I feel a lot better, although I don't really want to look at the - thing - on the back deck.
I've decided I need to try and get into town. Wakefield's only 8 minutes from here in the truck, and I have a full tank of gas. I can hit the major grocery stores, try and get some supplies, and get back here again. Hopefully I won't be gone more than an hour.
If I don't post again, could someone who knows me please tell T that I love her? She's underway right now, on her way to patrol in the Gulf, so she should be safe for a while at least.
I hope I'll be back soon.
