I did the math (correctly, I think) and this is day 81. I know I haven't posted in forever, and I haven't been sitting around doing nothing all this time. But with birthdays, rejoining society, and other such things, I haven't really had much time to document things. Right now my progress is right around 30 completed and a handful more tasks in progress out of about 75.
43. ✅ Hose and mop the garage.
I didn't need to do much. It had been forever since we had a good snowstorm, and most of the salt had already been worn away. So I just wept up and used the shop vac to clean up the corners and gaps.
65. ✅ Fix the leaky sprinkler line.
I discovered this minor leak when I opened up the sprinklers for the season. Fortunately it was just a slight drip in one of the drip line hoses. The other good thing was that it was relatively close to where I needed to spice the line in order to run moisture to the front flower bed anyway. So I just cut the line where the leak was, cleaned up the ends, and installed a T junction.
72. ✅ Pull about a million dandelions in the back yard
Yeah, I did this. It was not worth it.
11. ✅ Spring garden planting.
No time or desire to really plant a garden this year, so I just planted the handful of spaghetti squash plants that I started in the kitchen. I also planted one tomato plant but it did not make it.
45. ✅ Rearrange the furniture in the master bedroom to make room for the crib.
This took me several days. I had to move furniture out, furniture in, and furniture around.
46. ✅ Set up the crib in the master bedroom.
Done. Now I just need the baby to learn how to sleep in it.
62. ✅ Set up the kids' bedroom air conditioner.
Ahhhhhh, cool air. I wish I didn't need to use this thing, but my back neighbor feels the need to light a smoky bonfire in his back yard every night, so we can't open the windows to let the breeze in.
13. ✅ Patch the drywall in the living room stairwell.
This looks like crap, but it's better than a gaping hole in the drywall. If I have free time and feel up to it, I may re-sand, re-texture, and re-paint the wall.
