Time, she does fly...

It's Sunday evening already, and I'm never sure how that happens exactly. The weekdays are roughly equivalent to two-point-five weekend days--at least in my universe. I did get a lot done this weekend, in addition to many hours of WoW time, but it's never enough. Never enough.

It's Big Trash day tomorrow (or sometime this week, at any rate, since they are always several days week for the Big Trash pickup), so I did some yard work. I finally broke down and bought some hedge and pruning shears. The bushes were looking...well...bushy. I should have borrowed the electric ones from Ken (next door neigbour), but I feel pretty awkward doing that. They were 15 bucks or something, so it's managable. I trimmed a bit here and there--what I could stand, anyway. It was miserably hot, so I worked in approximately 20 minute invervals. It looks better. Not great, just better.

I also had to buy some concrete pavers and 1x4s to strategically place along the fence in the hedge to keep the dogs from taking advantage of the rotten wood and errant branches...Apparently Delilah found a way through yesterday! The doorbell rang and there's the other neighbour timidly telling me that my dog is in her yard. Thank goodness the little yappy dog that visits from time to time wasn't there! *shudder*

I'm tired. Goodnight. Hope you had a good weekend and have a good week.
