3 Days.

Posted on April 17, 2006 by patrickrhett

In the three days since my last post we:

  • Bought a refrigerator. (Giant Discount Appliances rocks.)
  • Bought a washer and dryer. (Ditto.)
  • Planted flowers in the front porch planter. (Which, prior to our arrival, appears to have been the neighborhood litter box.)
  • Made a bed for more plants on the ground in front of the planter. (Of all the tasks I can claim very little credit for, this one would be at the top of the list.)
  • Cleaned the gutters, which were so full of junk there were plants growing in them. (Well, ok, this one is on top of the list. This was all Matt.)
  • Started a compost pile. (Really just a pile of organic junk in the back yard, but I’m optimistic about it’s future.)
  • Mowed and trimmed the lawn. (This was more fun than I thought it would be. I’m sure the novelty will wear off when I realize I have to do it more than once a year.)
  • Swept the front walk. (It was real dirty.)
  • Repaired the toilet. (All me!)
  • Repaired a window. (Also all me, but really ugly caulk work.)
  • Cut down a small tree and about 50 bamboo stalks. (Nature will be our bitch.)
  • Went to Home Depot about 873 times. (We will be Home Depot’s bitch.)

    • I’m sure there’s something I’m forgetting, but you get the idea. A couple more weeks at this level of activity and I think we’ll be almost ready to move in.
