At Home in Colorado Springs

This is the second entry to get into the database. I’m still testing the
functionality and verifying that everything gets into the database
correctly. Nina wanted to know what I was doing and was somewhat
incredulous that I’d spend the time doing this rather than just writing
on a piece of paper. It’s fun and interesting, that’s why!

Got up this morning and rather than going down to the club, decided to
work in the yard. With the schedule at the Temple each Saturday, getting
things done in the yard has been rather difficult. So, I’ve decided for
the next several weeks to spend the time in the yard rather than at the
exercise club. I suspect this will be some reasonable exercise, anyway.
So this morning I raked the front yard. I thought it would take about a
half-hour. Wrong. An hour later I was still at it and starting the
cleanup. My arms are quite tired and a bit sore. That was a lot of
workout those muscles haven’t had for quite a while.

With that work, the front yard looks quite a bit better. Much more work
is required!! We’ll go over to Home Depot tonight to pick up some wood
chips / bark to put down in the flower beds in the front yard. We
haven’t done anything with these beds since we got here, so I guess it’s
high time that we upgraded them. I’m sure the neighbors will be relieved
that we’re doing something with the yard!
