Got a lot of stuff done today, mostly because I had plans for the day that fell through with little warning leaving me feeling at loose ends, and then the babies took a four hour nap and I didn't.



1. My bedroom has become the place where laundry goes to die, so I folded and put away the giant pile of clothes and sorted out stuff to off to goodwill.

2. Cleaned up the kitchen.

3. Finished building the stone wall that I started back in May.
May:

June:

Now:


Honestly I'd've had it done sooner except that the entire summer it was either raining out or the mosquitoes were so bad you couldn't be outside for more than a minute at a time w/o being covered.

And I didn't hurt myself very much either. Some of those rocks were pretty darned heavy, though.

I don't know if I'll get a chance to start the long leg of the wall on the other side of the driveway this year, but I want to get the remaining stones out of my driveway so I might just start, if the weather stays nice.

4. now I'm going out to dinner with friends, and then after I get home and the babies are sound asleep in bed, gonna work on the novel again.

Nice work on the wall! Good flat stones too.
