OK, so...

She forgot to go to the Post Office, but it will be in the mail tomorrow. :)

I am alone this week, but I managed to keep ahead of the work today. I'll be at home working tomorrow and Wednesday.

It's been a nice day again. Turns out this has been the coldest Spring, or something like that, since 1891. Today it was sunny and warm though.

I am listening to the Mariners lose to the Marlins and just relaxing.

After some driving around, we found the dump and unloaded a truckload of junk. It cost us $27, but $10 was for a couple of motherboards and computer stuff. The garage is looking much better. Today Boy and I are going to move the freezer and the big shelving unit, then I'll figure out where I want to put up those leftover wire shelves.

It's still only 56°, but the day has brightened a bit. This sunbreak has lasted for a couple of hours, but showers are still around. Tomorrow looks a little better. Summer is nowhere to be found, though.

Have a delightful Saturday. :)

I have given up. The rain continues and I can't get much done outside.

So, I am taking Friday off to get the garage cleaned up. First, oh joy, I have found the dump and it is close to us. No freeway. :)  I have a couple of chairs and some other stuff too, I'm sure I will find.

Then I'm going to get all the stereo stuff out of boxes and into the tower. I have no speakers, but it will take up less space that way. The plant stand/baker's rack is next. It stood in our large foyer in Columbus, but we have no room here. It is going outside on the deck, back under the eaves, where we can put lots of plants on it.

After that, I am going to disassemble the big shelf unit, move a freezer, reassemble the shelves in a new location and hang up some shelves on the walls. I'm getting ready to build a workbench and everything needs to be rearranged out there. Someday the rain will stop, but I gotta do something now... Maybe after this, I'll paint my room.

I get to do a presentation tomorrow at another team's meeting, 15 minutes or so. It's a simple little 10 slide Powerpoint, but my boss is gushing about what a great thing it is. I hope she's still happy after I do it.

Tell somebody how much you love them. You'll both get a lift. :)

Later...

I've been working hard, this week, even today and have some left for tomorrow. Nothing too hard, maybe a couple of hours to do a draft of a presentation.

We finally got new bi-fold doors and tomorrow Boy and I will put them up. We need to cut the grass, but the neighbors were not home all day for me to borrow theirs and then it rained. I will buy one next weekend when my Lowes card comes. I did put down more mulch, as it wasn't raining too much.

J got me a suction cup stick-on-the-window hummingbird feeder for my bedroom window as an early Father's Day present. I'll put it out when I can figure out how without falling out.

I'm putting together all the Steely Dan albums I have from Limewire and having fun listening.

Relaxing at last.....

Birds

In addition to that video, I have: Fixed the recycling bin lib with some hillbilly engineering, dug around the patio and hooked up my backup drive to share over the network.

Night, ya'll...

The birds have gone for now, ( but here is one... )

The weather's been gorgeous today, 76 and sunny. I took the mower in, but he wants $200 to fix it, so I am just buying a new one, which won't be much more than that. We cut the grass with a borrowed one once again.

J is scheduled for a bone scan next week. She seems happy with the new doctor and that her pages and pages of records have come from the old one. Only a few more weeks of school for her.

With that, the pizza is calling. Hope you're having a great weekend!

Today, we plant. Vegetables, upside down tomatoes and some flowers. I will be building a fence around the garden and J will do the actual 'green' stuff. I also have more digging to do. Perhaps I'll post a picture later of what will surely become this summer's project for me, clearing a garden around the fruit trees. But first, the areas around the patio and the side of the house need cleaning up and mulching and that I hope to finish today.

It's only going to be 70 today, a 20 degree drop from yesterday. Yes, Seattle set a record of 90 yesterday. Felt like it too...

I am sick with a chest cold. First of the year, so I guess I should feel lucky. I don't... :(
