Alone again.

I decided to have some alone time and not host any helpers for a while. It takes a bit of time to get used to this again after hosting three helpers one after another. But I have neighbors on boats next to me and I can get off the boat at any time. So now I can wake up at 4:00 or 5:00 a.m. and not worry about disturbing someone else sleeping. I love early mornings. I must insist on this one priority when hosting again. They say that we are most like ourselves when we are alone. Perhaps people who enjoy being alone like themselves more than people who don't enjoy solitude.

The other thing I should remember, is that people tire me out. I am an introvert and get energy from being alone. 

So I varnished the cockpit, I'm playing the piano, and I finished my watercolor so now it only needs a frame. I prefer to work on boat maintenance first thing in the morning when it is still cool, so that I am done by 8am and have the rest of the day free. Most jobs, such as sanding and varnishing can be split into one hour segments.
