Secret Garden
Jun. 25th, 2002 10:31 pmI ordered brick on Sunday. It arrived yesterday while I was at work. Last year I waited for a weekend to start the wall and built it all on a Saturday. I was sore and lethargic all of Sunday.
This time I wanted to start right after work. It's like I had new toys. Unfortunately I had a bit of a run around getting the sand I needed and didn't get home until 7:30. So tonight I started at 6:30. I wanted to start at 5:00, but again the world tried to conspire against me.
I actually finished the first wall by 8:30. I had to stop and shower in time to watch "The Mole 2". Okay, I didn't have to, I wanted to. Just call me a periodic couch potato. On the periodic couch potato table would I be one of the unstable elements?
Okay, so I hefted about half as much brick in two hours as I did all day last September. And I'm ready to do it again. I even told Juli if she didn't like it I'm ready to rip it down and start over.
I think going to the gym is working.
