Weedy PatioThis weekend I stayed home! I didn’t go out and do any dog sports or competitions. Well of course I did some training in the back yard, and I also went to flyball practice tonight, but I didn’t enter a trial or a tournament or spend a whole day doing dog things! I did house things! I even pulled up the weeks from the patio. I don’t like to use poison on the weeds because the dogs are back there, and they eat the grass a lot. So I pull them up.

Less Weedy PatioWe have a stone patio and it’s pretty old. The stones are all crooked, not flat, and the space in between is no longer weed proof. So we get a lot of weeds that grow up between them. As you can see. :) So I spent much of the morning on Saturday, until it got too hot, pulling up the weeds. And it did get hot and I didn’t use sun screen on my back so now I have a bit of a burn, dangit. =P Oh well, it’s not too bad.

Less Weedy Patio AgainIt’s hard to get all the little weed bits out from between the stones. I tried my best until I was too hot and too tired. The dogs even stayed inside because it’s too hot for them outside. It was probably in the high 90s on Saturday, though now I forget. Tonight at flyball practice it was hot, too, and we could have used more shade. I do understand why people live in southern California… the weather is so nice there!

I also swept as good as I could. Which isn’t all that great because I get tired. :) But I was happy with the job. My husband and I also cleaned the front room on Saturday. He vacuumed and I dusted and mopped. And the house is so much more pleasant now! I even cleaned the kitchen some this morning. Next weekend I hope to spend some more time in the spare bedroom getting my junk organized a bit. Yeah… it’s my junk room. Everyone has to have a junk room, don’t they?

On this day..

    yes — I have a junk room! My weekends have been so crazy — but I really need to keep my tail home and get some stuff around the house accomplished!
