Managing Time Constraints

From Lars Ginér (Westcoast Surfski Group):

Posting this with a heavy heart

Love paddling and all the nice things that come with it but it takes up too much of my time. Struggling with the puzzle of life and the everyday job to wash, cook and clean and I understand that something must stand aside.

I've decided to get rid of my stuff. Below is a list. Serious suggestions are considered, no shame offers. Thank you in advance for your understanding and interest.

Here's what's for sale:

1. Vacuum cleaner
2. Dust Broom
3. Bucket and mop
4. Ironing board and iron
5. Carpet Beater
6. Toothbrush
7. Various laundry and cleaning products
8. Trash Can…

Signs of a Paddleholic

hehe, don't know about you folks, but since becoming a paddler:

• Find myself staring at any standing water bigger than a surfski
• Any sight or sound of moving water gets my attention (except maybe dishwasher or flushing of toilet)
• Pictures of waves seem to have deep meaning
• Any sight of a boat in any condition tugs at my line of sight
• Cars with rack on them must be someone I know, or their friends
• I get neck pains after a drive to Seattle on the freeway (was that a boat? or just some lumber on that truck in the other lane?)
• I wave at every car with a boat on it's rack (when it's a touring kayak I try to keep my hand below the dashboard since they seem to think I'm trying to sell them life insurance or something)
• Stormy weather makes my heart beat faster

It's like the signs of a paddle-a-holic. Don't want no cure.
