Day 2682

 I finally got enough sleep.  I didn't wake up until 8.  Then it was a long game playing session before getting up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After that I surfed for a short while and then went out to work.

It was a good day for working.  It was 71 degrees and humid.  However, there was lots of cloud cover and a pretty stiff wind.  That kept things comfortable.  I started off with a hand weed digger in search of thistles.  I dug the three I'd found in the back yard and then went over all of the rest of the lawn.  I found about 10 to 15 total.

Then I got out the implements of destruction and started cutting all of the foliage that was impinging on the driveway.  Eventually I had the hedge trimmer, loppers, pole saw, three extension cords, and ladder out.  I cut stuff out of several trees along the driveway all the way up to the height of the trailer.  I even cut up and hauled away a large branch that had fallen on the other side of the front fence.  It took well over two hours, but the driveway is probably clearer than it has ever been.

I put everything away and went hack into the house.  I was hot and tired.  The cloud cover had become much thinner so the temperature had gone up.  It took me almost 2 hours before I'd recovered enough to have lunch and a shower.

After that I played for the dog for a while and then sat down in the recliner.  That resulted in a 1.5 hour nap.  I didn't wake up until 6.

Ellen fixed Kung Pao chicken for dinner.  After dinner I sat with the cats and watched videos.  Ellen had doggy duty.

I was just too tired to work on either the clock mechanism or the new digital frame.  That will have to be tomorrow.  I am happy at how much I got accomplished today.
