Fortunately it is a long weekend and I have tomorrow off. I have what I feel is a lot of work to do around here, and I would feel bad if I didn’t get it all… or at least a major portion of it… done before I have to go back to the grind.<\/p>\n
I really shouldn’t complain, and could probably explain my lack of energy as a result of the amount I actually DID get accomplished so far this weekend!<\/p>\n
Friday: We had some important changes to make to the system, and it went quite well with very few hitches. I even learned some new sekrit information about the system which might come in handy for next time (if there is one). We shut down the system at noon, I did my back ups (safety first!), then I got on the phone with the vendor and we made the changes, did the testing, and were happy and ready to go home by about 2:45!<\/p>\n
Saturday: I took my sister-in-law to Humber Nursery to get the plants for the front garden. I spent $325 there, and another $50 at Home Despot for some more concrete block. We left her house about 11:30 am, and she started planting at 6 pm. I had to spend the afternoon finishing up the blockwork– some decision making, and fiddly bits to work out– but when all is said and done I think I can be quite proud of my efforts. (pictures to follow at some point)<\/p>\n
Sunday: Today I treated myself to a relaxing day. I started by staying in bed and reading until noon, and watching some movies on TV. I finally managed to get dressed and get out of the house around 3:30, and hacked away at the overgrowth of vegetation in my driveway until almost 8 o’clock!<\/p>\n
But there’s still a lot to do. I mean there’s always<\/b> going to be stuff to do, but my current concern is to do as much clean up around the place to fill the dumpster and get rid of it soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
