Racking up the OT!

Hey, Peeps!

How’s your week going so far? 😎

I had a REALLY busy weekend that turned out to be surprisingly productive.

It started on Friday when I had a system problem to deal with from nearly the moment I walked in the door. It wasn’t resolved by 3 o’clock, so we scheduled for more to be done after 10:00 p.m. when business closed for the day. At 2:30 a.m. it still wasn’t resolved, so they needed to call for some experts to look at it. That work started at 1 o’clock on Saturday afternoon… and I finally wrapped things up at 10:00 p.m. on Saturday NIGHT!! I put in a 9-hour day on Friday, and 12 hours on Saturday!!

WHERE DID MY WEEKEND GO?! It’s a really good thing we didn’t have any important plans for Saturday!

Sunday started slow (I wonder why?!) but got better. I got a LOT done in the yard. I: pulled the bikes out of the shed; moved stuff around in the shed to organize it for summer use (vs. winter storage); mowed the lawn; cleaned out underneath the cedar along the fence; dug out some False Spirea and put it into pots for B-R-C to take to school for their plant sale; emptied out the composter; planted some hostas; cleaned out behind the shed; installed the drainage stone around the shed (and I think I could use another couple of bags full!); tidied up the future firewood stash; and played with the dog.

So because of all the overtime, I’m going to take at least one day off this week. We had planned to rent a rototiller last weekend, but neither the gardens nor I were ready. Besides, I think it will be easier to find a tiller available during the week when all the other shmoes are at work!

And here I was thinking we were supposed to have a “Day of Rest” on either Saturday or Sunday!
