So a little about me...

I'm Jeff and I'm from Western Canada...the good part, Northern BC and Alberta. I'm just normal oilfield trash that got interested in blogging. Can't say I am the most prolific or timely, but if I have something to say I usually will...So anyway this is just a look through my eyes once in a while...I don't claim to be right, but I'll never be left.

Me I'm stupid,
It's all I ever wanted to be,

Shock me again and I'll say,
Anything you want me to"

Over-extension-tended-tedium...

First posting for June 2011, and its a crazy start stop spring so far. Been getting a fair amount of rain but still sneaking in the day after to get the work done and dry things up. The stats aren't too good so far: Three different jobs, all cleanups, started and not completed. We can't get the final trim completed when its wet, need dry weather just like a farmer to get things done. I don't like the feeling, the spaz in me just wants things done right the first time.

A new character has been added to the catskinner cast. I call this one PG. I am enjoying the company and conversation. Lately we have discussed "Neighbour Hussy" who plays a minor role in life at this moment...NH dresses up in camouflage and hunts bear after work. NH knocked on my camper door the other night and asked if I would be so kind as to not call the cops when she goes to assassinate the bird that has pecking on her camper night and day for no apparent reason. I haven't heard the shot yet...but any day now.

Other than life being a total monotonous grind, working away from home, living in my van down by the river, wondering when it will finally rain enough to send me home for a few days...everything is good and I like that.
