Weekend

Well, we managed to tame the back yard -- which was filled, hundreds of square feet of it, with four foot weeds and plants such as sunflowers, and I don't know what all.

But we tamed it. Hard work, done in the morning and evening to avoid the worst of the heat. In the progress, we created about a cubic yard of new compost pile!

The old compost pile is now in use as dirt, spread here and there to support the nutrient needs of other beds.

I'm a tad sore, but otherwise fine. My tendonitis is giving me a bit of an attitude, but the cider is helping counteract the ache ::grin::

If our idiot HOA approves, I'll be putting a shed over the old compost area on the weekend of the 21st.

NEXT weekend, I need to lay nearly three tons of rock in the back yard, which should be interesting.

Oh, and I got replacement parts for the crispy Tesla, so I'll probably revive it next week.

I've been doing housework too, but slowly... I'll see if I achieve my June goals of planning, housework, and yardwork soon enough.
