Rest day, but tired

because I spent the afternoon helping Mum haul rocks. OK, Mum did most of the hauling, while I hovered worried about her hurting herself. I try but I just can’t pick up those big rocks, Mum is a real gun, she also has a good eye for design so it was best just to let her go and do what I was told.

We also placed alot of the bigger plants about and it is really starting to look like a proper garden now (Pics tomorrow I promise). Sunday is my designated watering day so I will plant them tomorrow, I am only supposed to water between 6am and 8am but bugger it, it is not Summer so I will water when I damn well please. For any non Aussie readers Melbourne has been in drought for a couple of years now so we are on full on water restrictions, only allowed to water the garden twice a week during a two hour window.

The deck is in now as well, my step dad will finish it off by facing the sleepers and he will also build some steps. He doesn’t know this yet, he is in Canada at the moment visiting his own Kids, “hey Ken, welcome back, have a good trip? Great, fancy building me some steps” He will do it though because he rules and I will make lots of cups of coffee and bake treats. We had some troubles when I was a bratty teenager but we are best mates now.

I have a 19km run on the agenda first thing tomorrow, I was going to head out to a nice trail somewhere but time is of the essence. There is a great big pile of mulch in my driveway that needs to be spread and I have a stack of planting to do, so I will get up early and just do a local run, have a little rest and then get stuck in.

Possibly related links?
Yes, have been meaning to turn this feature off for a while now, keep forgetting. Today it turns out that under this function my blog has wound up linked on that written by a foot fetishist who is paid by other foot fetishists to have all manner of things done to her feet. Nice work if you can get it I suppose and far be it for me to judge how someone makes a living, unless you are an Arms Dealer, Celebrity Chef or Home and Away “star” in which case how can you live with yourself?

Anyway, to anyone who has clicked the link and found there way here I am really really really sorry, you are going to be bitterly disappointed, I am a runner and my feet are R E V O L T I N G, unless of course you are into back toenails, blisters, callouss and hammer toes, in which case $50 a picture is the going rate, I could use the extra cash to help fund my house restumping
