It was raking day.

.

All good.  And I did get out and help this time.  I do enjoy doing that.  Now to buy grass seed.  I'm not sure if I should buy enough for this spring and fall, or just wait.  I don't know how well grass seed stores.  Just patches that need filling, and perhaps to add strength to what else is there.  I will need to watch the water a bit more carefully too.  Especially here.  Very dry.  But I don't want to over-water either.  Bleh...  I'll never be a landscaper or yard-man.  I will give it a shot though.  Many of my neighbors take good care of their lawns and I'd like to not be the odd man out.  Not the only reason.  I love having a lush green lawn.  There is something psychologically good about that.  Hmm... fertilizer and a spreader, too?  Dunno.  Weed work, even by hand?  It is a thought.  Dunno... thinking.  I won't put the hoses out until after last frost, and then some though.  I do need new sprinklers.  The ones I have seen available don't seem to last long.  I've tried metal (tin) and plastic.  Tin seems better, but not by much.  I may research to see if there are any that really do well, and last.  Or... research again, again, again.

After the work, some crystal light.  They can't enter my home, which is probably a good thing.  It's messy now.  I have some chairs out, just needed to take the table from the garage and put it on the patio again.  A bit of resting, a cool drink, conversation, and then that was that.  Always a good thing.  Well, assuming the company is pleasant, and they were. 

Perhaps another shower, then bath.  Laundry and maybe a few dishes too.  Oh, and the bathroom.  Not sure how much else, but I would like to clean the bathroom and set up the rugs.  I think they will really go with the Mona Lisa shower curtains, adding contrast, and an offset focal point(s).  I'm not an artist.  I don't even play one on television.  But I do know what I like, making some effort to express it is tricky, since I can't be sure I am using the right terms.  Still, that should do.  Then again, how much of what we say is almost purely made up, even wrong?  Don't know?  Record all of your conversations for a day, or week, then listen some time.  Hmm... yeah.  I have done that, with one particularly squirrelly woman I knew.  Not to prove her wrong (or right), only to get a sense of what it is I was saying.  A few times and I fully realized she was the problem.  Fine, just checking.  If you don't know something, for sure... check. 

Hmm... or I may read a bit, and take a nap.  Shouldn't need a nap, even with helping the little bit in the yard.  But I feel like having one anyway.  Yeah, reading then nap.  Then maybe a bit of this or that.  Later.
