• yard overhaul is going along, with a few twists and turns that work to my advantage.
• enjoying my life and love with Jim. as well as being mysterious with the folks at work who knew us back when...
• gearing up for school and generally feeling like the administrative side of OSR sucks the cosmic weener. man, they suck.

And so, what are you doing to the yard?

I know we'll be in the area in December, but hopefully before then!

we tore up the patio to fix the drainage. we typically have 1-3 inches of water on the patio, during the winter! so, i decided to spend part of my divorce settlement on fixing the problem.

we tore out the trellis and wooden deck, lifted all the pavers, regraded, put in new french drains and catch basins that connect to the deeper-down drain pipes. the new patio will have flagstone and boulders, and later in Sept I will have a bonsai table built.

if I still had a web server (brian took that with him) I would post pictures.

We will be here except for a week, to go to Santa Fe,
