things that are slightly different if you're causing a ruckus

If you are renovating, remodeling yourself, doing demolition, gardening, homesteading, roofing, bushwacking, farming or generally causing a ruckus more days than not, there are a couple things that are probably different about your life...

1- you shower at 5, because you can't eat over the smell of your own stench. In the mornings, there's no reason to be clean and fresh.
2 - you are excited when your weekend is over, because you get to sit behind a desk, or stand still and talk to people
3 - you are genuinely excited when new construction books arrive at the library
4 - you dream about having goats, because they would eat the lawn and almost everything else... so you wouldn't have to
5 - you crave lemonade, sandwiches and pasta at every meal
6 - you own more pairs of overalls and boots than you do pants and shoes
7 - you don't understand why people need to go jogging
