We've had some pretty nice days lately (until today when it started raining), so I made a trip to the home improvement store and picked up some fence boards. I replaced the one Jypsy slipped out through the other day and a few more that are worse for wear. I was going to do a couple more, but there was an upright buried brick underneath a board and the one right next to it that I could not seem to budge, even with the bad board removed. I had to work from both sides of the fence, and since there's only the gate on the driveway side I had to walk back and forth several times from the street around the house, down the drive and into the backyard. Once that stupid brick finally came loose, I was pretty much done. Wuss, right? Alas, you're right.
I've gotten some leads on several jobs, and on Tuesday morning I am heading out to each and every one of them to see if I can generate someone's interest in me. I wanted to go tomorrow, but promised someone I'd help them with some things. I'm sort of excited about Tuesday though and looking forward to it. Plus the sun will be shining - a definite plus.
Oh, and a word to the wise. If you're ever anywhere close to a place called "The Vending Nut", do NOT go in and buy a package of Butter Toffee Almonds. Trust me on this! I'm still trying to figure out how I can get in some exercise in the rain to counteract these devil nuts....
