I have a growing list of things I need to take care of outside. I have six blueberry bushes and two rosemary plants that need to be planted in the retainer wall. I have to sweep the concrete around the pool since Bryan decided to cut the retainer wall stones up there and it's now littered with stone fragments. I really wish he had cut the stones over the grass, but I guess he wanted a sound level surface for the circular saw.
The front yard needs my attention, as well. I have hedges that need trimming. I also have a driveway that is covered in a giant dirt stain from where the pile of top soil was earlier in the week. The rain isn't coming down hard enough to wash the dirt away so I'm going to have to sweep and hose it off the driveway. I also need Bryan to spread mulch around in the front gardens.
Bryan is going to a charity golf event tomorrow. He's not going to be around to help me with all this yard stuff tomorrow until much later in the day. I'm also willing to bet that he's not going to want to do much when he gets home. He has to get up at 5am tomorrow so he can head out to the golf course. I don't expect to see him until 4 or 5pm tomorrow. I will do my best not to be bitter about this tomorrow.
I seriously feel like I'm running out of time here. Tonight, if it stops raining, I have to play in a scrimmage against Madeline's soccer team. Her coach thought it would be fun if the parents played against the kids for the practice tonight. One half of the game will be dads vs. kids and the second half is moms vs. kids. I don't play soccer, and the thought of playing against a bunch of 6 and 7 year olds who are probably going to kick me in the shins isn't very appealing. Sunday we have a soccer game for Madeline after Mass, so we're busy until around 2 in the afternoon. That only gives us a few hours to work in the yard.
