As I was pulling weeds out of the patio bricks this morning (again) I had the thought that the patio and driveway are a bit like having a dog. With a dog you have to constantly pick up their mess – do it one day, maybe miss a day or two, but you’ll have to get back at it soon. That seems to be the way of the weeds in the patio bricks. I cleaned them up last week and by the time we got back from Texada yesterday they needed to be done again. I got the patio bricks done before I moved on to what I really wanted done – the driveway.

I’ll need another day to finish it off. The driveway itself is done but we have a trench that drains (or is supposed to drain) the rain water and with this dry weather the weeds and grass have sprouted up. I didn’t have enough energy left to continue on; I managed just over two hours and I’m feeling it now.

I did a bit more Hall work today. I cleaned up the digital files when we were on Texada so I transferred them to a USB drive. I have a meeting tomorrow morning with the two people taking over the Treasurer’s job so I’ll pass the drive along to them and then, except for the paper files, I’m done. I think I’ve said that before though so you never know.

I have a new evening project – the knitting was just too hard to keep straight while we watched TV. I’m working on a stamped cross stitched tablecloth, one that Mum had but hadn’t started.
