Yesterday I did exactly what I said I wanted to do with the yard. I mulched around the front flower bed, the tree in front of the house, the rock garden, at the back of the house where the vegetables and herbs are and I mulched the fig trees and tomatoes in pots. And yes, I did have to go buy more mulch for the side yard. While at the garden center, I got more soil and some shade loving annuals for the deck rail flower planters. Gotta love 88 cents for a six pack of flowers! Maybe if the rain isn't too bad today, I'll fill those planters, but we'll see. I will probably need to fold some laundry instead.
The other exciting thing is that REI is having another big sale - including their bicycles, so this weekend my older son and I will get/order our new bikes. And the sandals I want are also on sale, so double bonus. I really hope I'll find bike riding as fun and useful as I plan it to be. I really do have visions of riding to the grocery store and farmer's market. And if I do it regularly and enjoy it, I'll get things to make it easier for me to haul stuff.

Got to get running this morning. Our shower fell off it's track, so we had a mini panic attack this morning. Those shower doors (as they are not standard size) cost a fortune in our remodel last year. Phew... we got it back on, but it took precious minutes away from our usual morning routine.
