Banal Minutiae

I took Friday off last week to get a good start on a large amount of yard work I needed to get done. I figured it was supposed to rain Saturday and Sunday, so I might as well get it done Friday.

Friday turned out to be a beautiful day, and I managed to get a lot done. Somehow, I managed to get all the usual Friday errands (grocery, Wal-Mart, gas) done, plus I went to Lowe’s to pick up some compost for the garden.  I also managed to get my laundry done. Not bad for wanting to get yard work done.

I managed to get my garden weeded and worked some new compost into the soil, plus I managed to get everything planted. Let’s hope this year is a bumper crop like two years ago. I managed to get sun burned pretty good Friday.

Saturday was dismal and cooler, but I did manage to get the jungle mowed, as well as pruning a tree in my front yard. Had some people over for dinner, and made a couple of T bones on the grill. Nice.

Sunday was rainy, and I didn’t really do a whole lot.

All in all, a pretty good weekend. I just hate being back here at work.
