I have not worked much (or at all) on the engines this week. My wrists have been giving me a little trouble and, frankly, the whole magnetic flywheel thing was a little demoralizing.  On the bright side, I now know how to rebuild a small engine. I have yet to get an engine fixed and running, but I do know what most of the parts do now. Thus, I deem this project nearly completed.This being the first of many projects I intend to chronicle, I have begun a new page titled “projects” where my writing is organized by endeavor.

So, What’s next? Well, I plan to try my hardest to get the other two engines working, but ultimately I fear they are all destined for the scrap heap. Also, I have been doing a lot of writing beyond my blog of late and am slated to be published in Life Learning Magazine in November. I plan to continue to query and submit articles and maybe just be able to scrape a living out of it.
