Luckily we have lots of water capacity on our boat but it always comes as a surprise when they do cut the water off. They do that because the water system is exposed and even close to the water like this the water system can freeze.
Some days I wonder...Why do I live on a boat? Its not the most convenient way to live! Water must be watched. Electrical must be managed whether at the dock or on the Gen set.
Most of the time I enjoy the people we meet on the docks and on the water, the no fuss lifestyle, the freedom the move when we want to....There are lots of things.
I recently was thinking about death. I think that is a hazard of being close to 60 years of age. I dont feel old but reality is that I will be leaving my daughters and son behind one day. I would hope I leave first since that is the natural order of things.
Anyway, I was thinking about what I need to tell them. Stuff like passwords for my computer. Where the insurance papers are but mostly mundane stuff like what happens to my stuff. I heard on CBC about a site called Death Switch.com where you send an email after you die. I think that might creep my kids out. It would creep me out. Facebook pages where you can write on peoples walls creep me out. As if you can talk to someone who has passed over.
Another thing is --- why do we think of death so much after you reach 55? I dont know about you but I think about it alot. Its almost as if I have this feeling of impending doom. I read obits now for Gods sake! My father did that and I thought it was weird. Now I am doing it. What is with that.
Comments are welcome. I would love to know I am not alone with my morbid thoughts.
