 1 Halloween 2018. In keeping with tradition, I waited until the last minute to begin carving my pumpkin.
|  2 Since I recently moved, the bulk of my tools are packed away in boxes. I've spent too much time looking for them without results. Now I'm relegated to using ordinary kitchen utensils.
|  3 Not having comfortable implements is making the job harder, therefore the progress is slower.
|  4 Skinning away the outer edge of the pumpkin is a tedious task. Plus I'm making a mess, since I'm working on a folding TV dinner table. This is hardly a suitable workbench.
