Life continues...

Had a flu shot at work on Friday, arm still aches and I have a lovely big, red lump. A little suffering rather than get a dose of the flu is fine by me. I have cleaned up the yard after the storm on Wednesday, many, many bags of leaves and sticks. Have a small terrace in the back yard now, just need the soil to settle again and I can get on with some planting. Garden seat - made with only things I had in the garage - is painted. Need it to dry then add the roof (table top) and metal shelf ($2.50 from IKEA the other day) and I will have a nice spot to sit in the back yard. I feel virtuous as I also managed to fix the kitchen floor and lay a new new tiles down as well.
