At going to bed on time
Good thing I’m retired

Fermenting in a Kerr jar -
Killer kombucha.

And, of course, some lube

Spit and persuasion

Believe it or not, I know the song of which you speak!
_(The Berrymans have ‘officially’ retired, btw, but if you DM me I can provide a link so you can see/hear their last performance for a Folk Music Society fundraiser last November)_
in play –
Actively avoid
Rattlesnakes, Gila monsters,
And poison ivy.
