The lake was WIDE open this weekend. I even had a brief, yet chilly, boat ride in the late afternoon sun, as we grabbed our dock from out of the bay next to us, and refit it to the steel moorings, and anchors on the lake bottom. One more thing checked off the list besides chopping wood, boiling sap for syrup, washing sap buckets and spiels, taking down the rink, stacking the rink boards and stakes, cleaning, drying and putting away the liner tarp too. I also did some late day burning of old mouldy flooring which I started back in November! Cleaned up some dangerously hung up trees from the back lot near the burn pile, and that was our weekend in a nutshell. Well besides easter egg hunts, dinners, and a stint in the hot tub to ease my sore back. I had just a little bit of paid client work on Friday, and again on Monday which was good. Glad my clients could use that time I had set aside for their projects.
Today I’m trying to clear off any remaining items and then I’ll call it a day around 10:00pm tonight. Hopefully with an all clear!
I still need to transfer six retail projects and create some french language companion sell sheets, but otherwise I think I’m in a good spot. I am waiting on changes to one set of retail items, so hopefully I get those today! Fingers crossed.
What a lovely weekend it was though, sunny and bright, blue skies above. A few times we had a cool blast of wind, but mostly it was a face burning good time spent outdoors in the sunshine. It was a lot less mucky than we had expected. I wore my Wellington boots and didn’t really need them, like at all. Even the lane in from the main road was dry and settled. Weird winter we had this year. I don’t think we will have the usual April standing pools of stagnant water all around this year. Ground thawed out ages ago.
Pretty sure today is Tuesday. Almost missed recycling thinking last night was Sunday night. Was out watching the Leafs game at my friends and noticed the blue boxes out and twigged to it then. Could have been a catastrophe of smelly proportions! Ha.
Which reminds me, once it gets warmer I need to repair the front garbage box lid. Add it to the list I say! Have a good one. Ciao Bella.
Oh yeah we got my daughters bed to the cottage, and it’s all set up and looks like the real thing. Nice!
