On the "to do" list today

1.  Clean all the debris out of the "pond", change water, and get the pump running.
2.  Flood the pressure washer trying to start it so you can clean out the "pond".
3.  Weed all the maple seedlings out of front beds while you wait to try starting the power washer again.
4.  Successfully start the power washer and clean all the Lannon and field stone in the wall around the "pond", the "pond" liner, the wooden park bench, and the bird baths.
5.  Find the Teflon tape so you can join the two hoses with no drips.  Use it and be happy there are no drips.
6.  Now that the pond is done, look over and notice that the herb garden needs attention.
7.  Re-pot  the catnip, peppermint, and sage into larger pots and sink them back into the herb garden.
8.  Move the rhubarb into the herb garden from behind the garage in case John really does build a bigger garage next year.
9.  Water in everything you moved, potted, and neglected this morning with water from the rain barrel which is overflowing after 3" of rain this weekend.
10.  Realize your back is killing you from bending over so much, go in the house for a beer, and sit at the table to enjoy the backyard.
