The Planting
First off, I got picture happy and couldn’t narrow this down to a single picture so to those whose bandwidth hath been kilt, my apologises. Now on with the pictures!
Preparing to plant. The void from the removal of the sidewalk would take 3/4 of the trailer to refill:

A progress shot in similar perspective as the done shot:

Tree in the ground and mulched. Need grass seed:

A closer shot of the tree:

I thought this was a cool shot of the house with the landscaping in progress:

The house from the road:

Ok. This is what happens when a person is without work for a long time. Help save your bandwidth! Get me work!

Pictures
Ok. I had to take some time to edit some pictures. Here’s our family poser. No known candid shots. Thankfully she enjoys making chocolate chip cookies!

Lefty’s the only peoples in their right mind?
Oops. I forgot that our morning person has been up for awhile. Noah makes a presence. He is our only left handed person in the family. Goes to sleep early and is out instantly. Gets up early. Is almost always cheerful. Is just a great guy.

Bug found
Found the css bug in Cathy’s blog. Yet another reason to use Firefox instead of Internet Exploder.
I do like the fact that on this machine Cathy uses IE and I use Firefox. Our cookies don’t intefere with each other and our saved settings don’t get mixed up. If it doesn’t already exist, that would be a nice plug in or feature for Firefox “multi-users.”

Waste
Man this household produces a bunch of trash! Garbage is to the curb minus a little bit but hunger and thrist for coffee kicked in. Yes… I will get the cat liter changed after I eat. That’s the worlds worst job to get started; once you are doing it it’s not so bad.

Woke to rush around and get garbage to the curb..a task that I should have done last night.Today’s tasks:
-get a resume out to someone that I promised it to before Tuesday
-get a haircut
-submit cover letters and resumes to all ads from yesterday’s paper
-work on a computer at a local business
-take Tommy to play D&D this evening provided it doesn’t conflict with Bible School
-possibly shovel more manure
-{whatever tasks the wife has} -
Yard work at long last!
I went to a friend’s house and picked up horse poop. Unfortunately someone else beat me there not long ago taking 30 tons. On the positive side I wasn’t faced with moving 30 tons of manure and I believe there is plenty for me to complete the work I want to do. And! Everyday they make more!
Half of the sidewalk has now been removed. It took almost a full trailer load of manure to fill the void. The new tree has been planted (using a mixture of mostly cow manure…hmm.. cow manure surrounded by horse manure…yum!) This manure had seasoned so long that there is absolutely no smell. The tree has been trimmed in and mulched. Picture moment!

Jerry RIP
Dead mouse found on couch. (the cat really wanted us to know she’d done her job) Fortunately (for the cat) it died of internal injuries or heartattack so the couch wasn’t messy. Tom properly rewarded and encouraged to do more!

Programmers Wanted
This is too terribly funny in light of my current searching. I had to borrow this image from CollegeHumor.com (this link is to the original picture and is worksafe however the site CollegeHumor.com has suggestive banners and links to non-worksafe material)
