Trying to move quicker than the incoming storm, Mark and I managed to do some yardwork on Monday. Our yard has really suffered neglect with us opening the shop this past spring. A quick mow and once over with the trimmer seemed to make a great deal of difference in the appearance of the yard. Not to mention the weeding, I think we filled 6 trash cans with yard waste. Now if we could just get rid of the mosquitoes in the evening, we might actually find it relaxing to sit in the yard and read or just catch up on the days events! We are maintaining a bit of a balance which means we take time for ourselves as our first priority after the shop. The housecleaning and the yardwork, let’s just say that they take a close second to time for us. For now, that works for me.
