It's been a busy weekend for me.
Friday: I went to Costco after work. That takes some energy just to do that. If you've ever been to Costco, especially during a holiday weekend, you know what I'm talking about.
Saturday: Took my mom to Andy's (local nursery) so she could get some flowers to put in all her pots and planters. We then went to Lowe's so I could pick up a few things for the shop (wood glue, brad nails, painter's tape). Got home, ate some lunch, then I cut the back yard. After that, I planted all her flowers for her.
Forgot to say that I was up at about 3:00am Saturday with some pretty bad lower abdominal pains. I guess my supper Friday night didn't agree with me. So I wound up in the bathroom for a while waiting to see which end was going to come out of. And that lasted a while so I didn't get much sleep.
Today: Went and got gas for the cans and topped off the truck (I'd filled up on Thursday but had already used 1/4 tank). Went to Lowe's, again, to get some dirt, manure, drainage rock, and some 2-cycle oil. Got home and started on one of my projects.
I moved a bunch of Iron Plants from the front of the house around to the side. In that place, I put a planter I'd built a few days ago. The planter is ~8' long, 16" deep, and 16" wide. I built it to go under the big window on the front of the house. I have 2 smaller planters under the 2 smaller windows on the front of the house on the other side of the porch.
And the place I moved those Iron Plants to is mostly red clay. So it wasn't easy to dig. but I got it all done and now I'm just wore out. I'm about to put my steak on to cook (I use the sous vide method) so that's what I'll be eating for supper; along with a big backed potato.
