on the lighter side
I'm taking a break from the stuff that's weighing heavy on my heart these days. I'm reminded that the heart is wicked sometimes and maybe, just maybe, I need to step back and focus on other things.
The pool is open and I'm hoping by the end of the week that it'll be warmer. It's still a bit cool but as the temps climb, that won't matter. The water is crystal clear. It would have been easier I think just to drain it and clean it out with the pressure washer, but in the end, it was better to clean it the hard way. I want to get a little outdoor bench that I can keep hoses and the like in.
I found some white paint in the garage. I had to stir it quite a bit but it's the white paint I used to pain the outside of the house. The patio needs some love. I have some paint to love it with.
I fixed my own sprinklers today. I have a strip on the side of my house that runs downhill and faces west. It slopes downhill on two sides and it's very difficult to keep green in the summer. I found some new style sprinklers at Lowe's that I think just may do the trick, though. I changed them out this morning and we'll see.
June has insisted I keep my "nibby nose" out of the garden. I'm taking a rest today and obliging her.
I have a new project to work on. I was given a gas grill that needs love. Specifically, it needs a new burner and a new bracket for the igniter. I have never ever seen a wing nut have the ears rust off before. If they sell new that fits it, I will have a gas grill again. If not, I have free dump passes that will get used this week. I have stuff that needs to go.
I have some fishing planned with child/children. C'mon Saturday!
It cost me $100 to fill up both tanks in my truck.
Ouch!
