Another week gone bye, I just can’t believe how the time is
passing. Candy was out of town this
weekend visiting family so it gave me a chance to get some work items knocked
off the list.
Friday night I noticed I had a broken sprinkler line. So I went ahead and dug up the area and found
the cracked pipe. I left it open
overnight so that the water would evaporate and that I could fix it on
Saturday. Over the years I have become
quite the sprinkler repairman. I
compare myself to Mr. Parker from a Christmas Story. I can fix a broken sprinkler line in
minutes.
I have an area in the back yard that doesn’t get water so
before I headed over to pick up sprinkler parts I went ahead and dug a trench
and dug up the line where I would need to tie on to get water. This should help my transplanted Lilacs, now
I don’t have to run the hose up there to water.
Once I was back it took me 20 minutes to get everything hooked
up. Ran a quick test and didn’t see any
leaks so went ahead and filled in the trench.
Along with all the laundry, dishes and other house cleaning
items, I also managed to get the garage swept out, some pictures hung, deck
swept.
Saturday night was Prom for CMHS. Clark and his friend Nicole went with
another couple. They looked great and
from what I was told about the evenings festivities it sounded like they had
fun.
Sunday I worked over at the shop, it was time to mow and
clear the weeds. I am trying to get
grass to grow but the weeds keep choking out the grass. Helped Eric to put together a bed and
cleaned up the storage room. Things are
starting to look pretty good, may not have grass but we have weeds and they are
green so from a distance after a mowing it doesn’t look bad.
