THOUGHTS AND MUSINGS HONORING SURFACEY CONVERSATIONS, FAMILY, AND THE EXCRUCIATING MINUTIAE OF EVERYDAY LIFE

Project Mania

While being a part of the non-working world, I have gotten into a routine of trying to accomplish at least one "project" a day, while leaving time for family and friends.

Today's project: Trimming a rose bush and a tree. This took about two hours.

Yesterday's project: Cleaning up the street from the home fireworks show and trimming a rose bush. Again, about two hours.

Tomorrow's project: Plant some cucumbers in the garden. Estimated time of planting is about 10 minutes. Hello, swimming pool!

In other news, I bought a cover for the grill, Jonas informed me that he likes the TV show "Home Improvement," and Wynnie ran away yesterday. I was elated for about ten minutes, then she returned home and killed my buzz.

Isn't one of your kids 16? doesn't he perpetually kick your ass in tennis.. I think this russian and your kid should battle it out cold war style.
