Nice quiet weekend
This past weekend was just a nice quiet weekend. I got some much needed yardwork done — mainly, I trimmed all of the hedges around our house because they needed trimming quite badly. Looking back, I can honestly say that would not have been done if it were not for my new riding mower. I was happily able to mow my back yard in around a half hour without breaking a sweat so I felt like I had plenty of energy left over to do some of those every once in a while tasks like hedge trimming.
We also were able to get a quote for removing our broken tree that came in under what I thought it would cost, which made me happy. It is going to get taken down and hauled off at some point during this week. After a long and tiring day Saturday, Ashley and I wound up watching Pirates of the Caribbean after which I promptly fell into a deep sleep.
Sunday was a day of movie watching for me. Since we had some rain during the afternoon, I spent most of the day laying around on the couch watching movies we had gotten in from Netflix — namely, The Exorcism of Emily Rose, which was an all-around, creepy, good movie, and The Terminal, a suprisingly entertaining movie. I crashed hard again last night, but I woke up this morning feeling very refreshed from the weekend and ready to go after the week.
