Light Day

I was completely unmotivated today, so I didn't get to the property until 1100 or so. I started out by doing some clearing and light raking in the back of the house. Prepping to burn leaves and branches and crap that we are dropping back there. My next task, (which I didn't stay with very long) was smoothing and leveling out where the septic tank went in. Their equipment made a mess of the area. And they didn't do a great job fixing it when the covered the tank and drainage field. An hour or so bent over raking dirt was about all my back would take. So, after a brief break (which involved ordering a helping of motivation from Sonny over the phone) I went to work hauling more downed trees and branches from beside the drive. I found out that I absolutely can NOT back up a trailer. Oh well, guess I just need to practice. Anyway, three loads was all I managed before I used the cold as an excuse to call it a day. We get an order of lumber tomorrow and Sonny and Ken are back from working at the hotel, so it will be a busy, "productive" day tomorrow.
