Sisyphus

 Kadizzle always had a picture of Sisyphus in his office. Yesterday was a Sisyphus day. Under our new home are boulders of every size and shape. Kadizzle has the dream of hollowing out a space under the house to make a workshop. To accomplish this the boulders have to be moved. Inch by inch Kadizzle struggled to move about a five hundred pound rock out of the crawl space. With levers and hydraulic jacks the rock moved about three feet. Next the rock had to go up in the air about two or three feet to make it out the little entrance. 

The rock was close, then Winky had to get her nose into the game. Winky enlisted a landscape guy working next door. Rick came down with a jackhammer. The hammer did not have the right bit, but we did manage to bust a big piece off the rock. With a great deal of strain, struggle, and some levering the rock finally popped out the window. 

Today Kadizzle may again participate in the same insanity. Keep in mind Sisyphus never won, the rock always rolled back down on him. That is the story of life. We are all just pushing a rock uphill. Nobody wins. So today is Sunday, go to church and let Jesus help you push your rock ( just kidding Omar).  If Jesus does anything this weekend he needs to help the Ukrainians.
