Lots of Back Twisting
Apr. 5th, 2009 06:09 pmToday was more of Get Thing's Done.
Love the weather we had!!! I'm way out of shape, but I'm certainly ready to get the yard worked on. SO today I started by.... finishing book 5 of the Kitty series. I picked up book one at Powell's on the way to Cannon Beach at the beginning of March. I liked what I read and picked up the other 4 the next week at Boarder's. Then I saw from Amazon that book 6 was out so I grabbed it.
Unlike Juli, who will space out the reading of a series by reading a bunch of other books, I have no problem with total immersion. I'll be reading book 6 from now until Norwescon, though I suspect I'll need to bring the Bujold 's next "Sharing Knife" novel to the con.
My next task was to get garden bark and makings for a stew. I needed to find a slow cooker recipe that could be completed on high and in 6 hours rather then on low and in 12 hours. Found that on the web. Then with recipe in hand, off to Freddie's.
After the stew was assembled and cooking begun [and I must say it's smelling nice now], I swept the driveway of the snow sand left behind by the melting piles of December snow. That was followed by intense hoeing of the primary garden bed and then bark spreading. During the task I spoke with a few of my neighborers whom I haven't seen since fall. We're all coming out of hibernation apparently.
Day.
