Last weekend is the first free weekend we've had since the beginning of March! We love hosting and having visitors, and traveling to visit family and friends, but we relish our free weekends, which are so few and far between. A little R&R sounds nice, but that's not for us on our free weekends. We work, ALL DAY LONG, usually stopping for some unhealthy lunch- which we deserve, and where we can go covered in dirt or paint, and sweat. Last Saturday we even headed back out after dinner, working until dark. Here's some of what we did, and that's only the back yard! It might appear that we got to do a lot of fun planting, but really it was mostly weeding and mulching. We were both having trouble walking the next day. Really, who knew weeding is such a good workout?
Lu on the other hand got a lot of R&R. She's not adjusted to the weather yet and loves fresh wet mulch!
I did take a break to make some lemon mint tea, since trimming the bountiful mint was on the list. I don't usually even like iced tea, but all this mint and lemon- so refreshing!
Lu also found a good spot to relax next to the air vent- so worn out after lounging outside in the heat!
I've promised Laurence some work days now after all his help outside. Next on the list, and really almost finished, the booth in our kitchen nook!
