Tune Up

It's been a nice weekend. It hasn't been filled with alot of rest, but satisfying yard and home improvement work. On Friday, I got the itch to mow the yard, so since Ragged was away for a bit, I dug in and got 'r dun. I racked up some flotsam that had accumulated beside the garage after our backyard flooded last year. On Saturday, the fun continued with weed eating, limb trimming, dead hydrangea bloom pulling, Freddy loving, dead leaf raking, back yard chillin', gas grill cookin', Wal mart trippin'...okay, I'll stop and just say it was busy but good.

I managed to finish up the painting on the linen closet, so in a couple of days I'll rehang the doors and the painting will be complete...well, for now. We're probably going to paint the porch at some point. We'll see. Painting is about the only home improvement task we can do.

Today, I got in a good workout followed by walking several trips around one of our local parks and concluding later with a walk around our neighborhood with Ragged. It's so nice to be out in the warm weather and exercising again. Makes me want to go camping.

After a meeting with my supervisor last week, my working at home is offically back burnered for now. I'm not sure why, he just doesn't seem in a hurry to have it happen despite two new employees starting next week thereby creating a space crisis. But, against my nature, I'm going to be patient and wait it out. It will happen.

Ragged and I are enjoying the Blockbuster thing. We have watched many-a movies so far and it's been fun. Clerks 2 is an abomination. Just ask Ragged.

In the picture, Cooper naps on the ottoman. Ragged got alot of good pictures of him this weekend.
