A break in the weather!

Thankfully a break in the weather finally came and the sun was even out shining! Saturday, I put some time into getting rid of those confounded weeds! No help from Richard unfortunately! He claimed that it was time for lunch when I made a suggestion to get out amongst it. As I had just put a colour in my hair, I was literally under the pump to get out and back in within the normal 45 minute time-frame! I thought that I had a good crack at it, but really it didn't look a lot different. The damn weed bin fills up sooooo quickly, but at least now, most of the huge ones are gone and I hope for good!


Tip Number 5: The silent treatment does have a place in this world! Use it sparingly and wisely to get the most out of your partner!!





See! Pictured above is Richy Rich, smashing through a few weeds. After a TINY bit of silent time Saturday arvo, he was as keen as mustard to get out the back and start a very tactically planned ground assault. He even suggested that I stay inside and rest up. I think he too was engaging in his own game plan to get me out there. Well I did go out, because in the back of my mind I thought there may be a chance of rain next Saturday, which is the final weekend before Mum and Dad's arrival.

There is still more weeding and the leveling of the ground to do, between the boxing mainly to adequately accommodate for the concrete. There has been great motivation to get cracking on the weeds! I like it when my parents lock in a time, it really gets the mind and body going on what needs to be done. I would like to take this opportunity to wish the weeds well in their final week in the backyard!
