2 Fun ~ Freedom RUN

-
Just love when M&D let us all go out front WITHOUT the leash!! Woohoo! Mom goes to the corner and we run to her and Dad goes down the sidewalk on the fence line and when he calls us WOOHOO its Freedom RUN then Dad will say go get Mom and we RUN
-
oooh it’s so much fun!
-
We get to sniff the whole corner section after the mow and make our claim before we have to go home. In your language that means ‘in the backyard now’. But oh how fun when mowing day comes!
-
We even got to play in the swimming pools! And how nice, Mom did poop patrol ~
-
Awwh what a fun day…

Bow Wow 4-now... time 2 sleep or chow

Psst... storm

Okay so the weekend was busy!

did the lawn front, back and edge

worked under the deck

redid the workout room

stormed 4 times Sunday night, over 2 inches

tornado touched down ne side of town

had to stop working under the deck because of the rain

Saturday rain about 1/4 inch

tired, tired, tired

talked to dad Sunday?

oh and visited dad on the Saturday before, the 7th?

moved the glories, they didn't survive

taped fence design didn't make it

plucked the glory seeds

very tiresome weekend

***

So Monday minimal yard work and sore all over

ftr spoke to Ann, dentist office

Psst... only drops

Nothing measurable as far as rain only spit...

***

What is up with us? We both were dragging after a rough nights sleep. We both must have been thinking of the water softener leak. Not too long ago we had a horrible group of days when we discovered our relatively new water heater had been leaking in the garage for a long time. It is a story to tell and maybe sometime I may do just that, If so I will link it... totally laughable now but a nightmare then!

***

Anyhow, it took a toll on us, so when we found more wet boxes and a stream on the floor it was a flash back to the difficult emotions from the previous water leak. Again it happened over a weekend and then, there are the warranty issues and the agents you deal with etc. In addition to ending the night vacuuming water out of the garage, we lost all the money we spent on lottery tickets. We got only one number on each ticket. To think someone somewhere in Texas won all $126 million and boo hoo it was not us just for the record... next time I guess

So back to our non-energy day where we accomplished so much!

1. Watched some Wimbledon
2. Went for breakfast tacos
3. Went to the nursery
4. Watched the Men's Wimbledon finals
5. Mowed the entire front yard
6. Trimmed back a tree, some bushes and vines
7. Moved several plants to the back
8. Created the rain harvest section
9. Mowed almost all the back
10. Planted a tree
11. Went to W's
12. Went for more dirt
13. Finished the tree planting
14. Transplanted a couple of glories
15. Watered all the moved landscape items
16. Picked up the yard (dog toys)
17. Relaxed a bit
