The Caffeinated Penguin

Pictures from Katie and Chris's wedding (finally, eh)

Let's see, what else…

Memorial day weekend was nice, I got to hang out with the twin nieces and rock them to sleep while everyone was around for the christening. Then we came back and did some yard work, which continued into the week. We've cleaned up the rolls of fencing, go the small garden we're doing this season in, pried up some tractor eating rocks, took down the mostly broken choke cherry tree, trimmed the branches off some of the pines, mowed the lawn again, dragged out some dead branches and fixed the mailbox.

Still to do:
- Relocate the mailbox to be in front of our driveway, rather than offset from it.
- Move some posts and relocate some gates in the fencing
- (these two will make me spend some quality time with the post hole digger)
- Pull out some old posts which we don't want up anymore
- Trim up some more trees
- Have a bonfire to get rid of all of the tree stuff

At that point we can start to get into some landscaping.

Of course, then there is all the indoor stuff, which is up to 6 letter sized pages on the notepad. I need to make a spreadsheet and prioritize it all.

Meanwhile, the A/C will be going in towards the middle of next week, I'm still arguing with judges about gun stuff, and I'm going to try to visit a range which is having it's open house on Sunday. I'm getting distracted from making as much progress on the house as I would like because of the barrage of letters I'm having to write to everyone about gun stuff, etc.

On the plus side, NY has a bill in the Assembly which would legalize homosexual marriage. My Assemblywoman is a cosponsor (what, a politician who is both pro-gun and pro-gay marriage? No way! Someone who actually believes in freedom. Wow!)

Anyway, I think it's time for bed.
