January, First Week, What I did.

Well this week was a bit of a non happening event.  I had a list and a week to get them done.  Three things were on that list:
**So this weeks list.
Plant seeds.
Pot up Apricot tree. 
Mow backyard.**

I did plant the seeds.


*Weekend -  not a lot done.  Did a bit of mowing but not the area I wanted.
*Monday.- Watered everything.  Planted seeds.  Transplanted some lemon balm into a drum.
Spend amost of the morning doing chook stuff.  Oiled the legs of the AussieRocks again.  Wasted a bit of time looking for and fixing the crates that we transport chooks in.  I was told that someone would call in today and pick up 6 or 10.  I wasn't given a time but thought it would be earlyish as they had a bit of travelling to get home.  It had to be today because Im not home tomorrow.  Around 1 this afternoon I released the chooks as no one had come or rang to let me know what was happening.  The people never showed up and I didn't hear the phone, no messages.   Swapped old eggs for fresh fertile ones under 2 cluckies.
* Tuesday - Work so not home.  Watering and chooks stuff in the morning before work.  Left here quickly after work.  Searched for lost dog from 9pm 'til near midnight.
*Wednesday -  Down in Nannup, not home 'til afternnon.  Animals and watering.
*Thursday - Work so gone all day.  Watering and chook stuff before leaving and again when I get home.
*Friday - watering and chook stuff.  Inside tidy and clean.  It's now 2.30pm, I am expecting someone to call in for eggs and it's too hot outside for me.  Will put away weeks washing soon.  Will hopefully do some mowing later but I might be childminding.

There must have been other stuff done.  If there wasn't then I am a complete SA and deserve to starve!

On My Mind... Lots of hard work.

We have just had a load of sand delivered and I need to get it to where I want it out the back and around the yard.  There is a LOT of sand there.

 
I'm wondering how to handle it...I could leave it until we get the Dingo back and that would be easier but may be a few weeks away or if I wheelbarrow it I could count it as my Get Fitter exercise...But there is a lot of sand there and I'm not very fit or strong, it will be a lot of hard work, more than walking or bikeriding or mowing...

I'm thinking I could do a few barrow loads whenever throughout the next few days and see how I go.  I'm sure that there will still be plenty there when the Dingo gets returned.

This will be a challenge.  See how much I get get shifted by myself but do at least 3 loads a day.

It's too hot now though so it will have to wait until this evening.  But if it is too hard that means I'll have to do all 3 at once and not be able to have long breaks in between...Hmmm...better do one now to see what I am up against. 

Coffee first.  And though it is already 10.30 I haven't had breakfast yet so might do that first too...

On My Mind is something that Rhonda over at Down To Earth puts on each Friday.. 
It's fun. 
What's on your mind today?
