Working Up

by Dwayne Phillips

A list of activities that are a lot of work.

On a recent visit with family in Louisiana, a group of us discussed:

• decorating cakes for weddings
• sewing and making clothes
• cooking for 50 people
• and a few more things like these

The consensus was

these are a lot of work.

To the list of “sounds basic, but is a lot of work” I add:

writing a book

These things sound fairly simple. One thing though, you have to sit (or stand) in one spot for a bunch of hours and do something over and over and over. None of these activities can be done in 30 minutes.
