Temporarily Out of Service
My mall isn't just a tool. It's part of the process of supplying the family with firewood for the winter months. It's a means of exercise. It's self-discipline to be outside and to fill my lungs with fresh air. It's a physical outlet, allowing me to focus all my strength toward a single burst, symbolically blowing out frustration ...if that's what I need.
My mall is part of my strategy for self-care. It's so much more than a tool.
When the leverage end of your self-care strategy becomes twisted and splintered from years of stress, some choices need to be made. Find a whole new method, or just a handle? Fiberglas for strength and durability, or wood for better shock resistance?
Or, is there a spare mall in the shed, one that's been around for a while, maybe handed down from someone older?
Either way, it's important to get back in business. A lot depends on that mall.
