As usual when waking up before 7, I awoke this morning to Kristi telling me that my alarm was going off. Maybe I could record her saying my name and use that as an alarm clock or something.
The music went really well this morning also, although I didn't think we were quite as tight as last night. I thoroughly enjoyed playing for the weekend as a whole. I've been practicing drums alot, and I could really tell that I was more steady than I used to be. I really love playing drums, maybe if I work hard enough it can be my new #1 instrument.
After we finished I came home, ate lunch, and watched football for a little bit. Kristi and Lucy had went to her parents house in Riverwalk so that they could walk along the path by the creek. Lucy loves the outdoors, especially when water is involved. Sometimes I think she should live on a farm or something. I think they must have had a good time because Lucy was passed out on the floor for the rest of the day once they got home.
After watching football a little I got started on the yard work. I mowed the lawn, after which I tried my weedeater just hoping that it had been miraculously healed...no luck. I guess I am going to let Charlie (my father-in-law) look at it and then take it to a repair place if he doesn't know what the problem is. I talked to my dad about it a little too, but he thought it could be a variety of things.
Kristi and I plan on doing a good bit of landscaping in our yard. The first thing we want to do is increase our "curb appeal" by enlarging our mulch beds and planting bushes more strategically. To do this I needed to kill the grass where the mulch is going to go. Kristi and I outlined the new beds with a shovel and then I spent the rest of the afternoon spraying off-brand Roundup on the grass with my new tank sprayer. It worked great. Also, this reminds me...did you know that Charter does not offer HGTV in HD? This is extremely frustrating to me. I actually called Charter about this, and the lady had the same reaction all my friends have when I tell them..."You mean Home & Garden Television?!" Yes, I love Home & Garden Television. Also, my ESPN-HD is always pixelated or messed up in some other way. I think when our 6 month introductory rate is up I'm going to switch to Direct-TV.
After the yard work I watched a little more football and then we went downtown with my parents. We went to Mellow Mushroom, and then were supposed to go to "Art in the Park," but my parents got the times wrong and it was over when we got there. We went to Target instead, and that was good because I got another CD shelf.
So that was my day. We came home from my parents and I just watched more football and got in bed. I am thinking of building a deck in my back yard. I don't know if I could make a fence look really nice, but I think I can do a simple, nice deck by myself. If you've got any tips please let me know...
