Happy Memorial Day!

The fact that I'm on summer break hasn't sunk in yet because it's a holiday weekend...and Jim's still all up in my business. Just kidding. It's nice to have him home, mainly because he's been kicking ass on the yard work. I'm sure by tomorrow, however, I'll be ready for him to get back to the grind. Seriously though this has been the slowest weekend ever, which is a great way to start these next 2 1/2 months off. Fingers crossed it continues like this.

So yeah, the weekend has been incredibly productive. Jim's cleaned out the two front beds and finally finished off the dirt we had delivered a couple weeks ago and he planted the last of the flowers. He built up the bed off the front deck and it looks really good along with the hydrangea he bought. He cleaned out the bed where the Japanese maple is and today he'll till it and then plant seed for grass. The bed is way too big so he's going to shrink it to a more manageable size. I mowed the front and back yard and it all just looks so good. 

Other than working in the yard, Jim and I have just been hanging out here. Oh, except we did go out to dinner on Saturday with Jim's friend Dan and his gal Lisa. We went to 20 Brix in old Milford and it was delicious. What was more delicious was we were home by 8:00. Beyond that it's been about home and the neighbors and just enjoying this kickoff to summer. 

Plans today: It sounds like Jim's upstairs getting ready to head out. He needs to go to Home Depot, for what I don't know, but I'll send him to Kroger as well for some supplies for dinner tonight. I'm going to make chicken burgers, corn and a tomato mozzarella salad. I thought about going out to lunch but I think I'd rather just be at home enjoying the weather and yard. The stupid cicadas aren't too bad (yet) but I don't anticipate that being the case over the next couple weeks. Dumb useless bugs. 

What else? Oh, I have my 2nd appointment tomorrow morning at 7:30 for my tooth so I most likely won't post before then. I don't know what the 2nd step is but maybe using 3-D something to get my new tooth made and possibly putting in some sort of post? Who knows but I have been told that it's nothing and that pulling the tooth was the hard part. Hopefully I haven't been lied to and I won't have any "recovery" after tomorrow's appointment. 

And that's all. It's time to walk Scout before the stupid mother fucking cicadas start their unbelievably loud drone and start flying willy-nilly all over the freaking place. Later!
