Stuck Working


I'm sitting here in Madison, IN, where I have been working for the past week. I have a couple of weeks left here before I can return to Everett and Angelina. I am having strong withdraw feelings being this far away from Angelina but I do need the money to complete the repairs Angelina needs to be completely seaworthy. The things that need done are going to take at least several months to complete along with several thousand dollars.
I'm torn between working several more months or taking what money I have and starting the repairs. The prudent thing would be to work several more months, save some more money and complete the repairs in the manner which Angelina deserves. On a good note; I had Angelina out on the water by myself, the night before I left for Indiana. It was a blast! The wind was 10 knots out of the west and I had the leeward rail in the water on a close haul. It was outstanding!
Anyway, I am missing prime sailing weather in Puget Sound and I am bored out of my mind!
