Yet another productive (and very hot) day in
the backyard. The children were taking their oldest granny out for a belated
birthday lunch, so I started on my own. First a couple of wheelbarrows with
sand from the front to the back of the house. Then dismantling the framework of
the trampoline some further. I changed my ‘normal’ old boots for garden boots
in a huge male size because where I was working there was a huge chance to slip
into the green puddle. No! I did not slip, the boots were just in case. It will
take a little effort still but I am determined to leave not a single trace of
the crater here.
It is really not a bad job to do with such
lovely weather. I have a nice sun tan now as well as worked out. Time flies
when you’re having fun and before long it was three o’clock and my mom arrived
to take the promised tour in the new house. We chatted a little before we took
off and unexpected all the kids dropped by too. I took the chance to have a few extra hands
on lifting and detaching the framework and now that job is done too. Tonight we
brought back the trailer and wheelbarrow. Me still in my working clothes, covered
not only with mud but smear too because of the framework. I couldn’t help
wondering if the man from the trailer might have confused me with Bob the
Builder, while he was laying at my feet to unplug the trailer from the car. Normally when men are at my feet like that... nevermind, it must have been the hot sun burning my head all day long.
Well, tomorrow I will dress up more feminine again.
School in the daytime and in the evening I will go to the condolence for my
uncle.
