Successful Weekend

2015 Nov 15

This weekend I promised myself I’d work on my house, more specifically, my yard.  I haven’t been around much the past few weekends and before that I was buried with computer work.  Luckily I was able to make time to visit Crabtree Falls three weekends in a row!  The first was with my love, Beth Anne.  The next was with my friend and ex-colleague, Jat.  The weekend after that, it was with my dear, retired friend, the English Lady.

So, I’ve been neglecting my chores, to say the least.

Yesterday, I replaced a deck board, raked leaves (filled two of the largest bags I can get my hands on), organized some lumber, laid a few patio stones, fixed my bed, did some laundry, picked up a piece I had framed, the Charlottesville Music Showcase flyer, and had a great dinner at The Shebeen.

Today, I finished raking, bought and spread some mulch, cleaned house, gave some cedar to Lollipop for a window bench I’ll be building for her, and trimmed the Mulberry tree stump of its extra growth.

The weekend’s worst: programming Samsung nViewer Lite software for a friend.
The weekend’s best: mulching the side of the deck near the hill.

This is also my first post so on top of everything else I have accomplished, I’m going to start organizing my photos so I can share them.  That’s the purpose of this boring post…to whet the whistle for me to begin to play with my website and post some pictures.  There, I said it.
