Tired Monday
I am exhausted, both physically and mentally after spending the weekend doing hard labour (ripping up concrete, digging up clay soil) and a fair bit of coding (OpenSSH patches and memory buffer support for syslogd). Fortunately tomorrow is a public holiday. The garden is slowly taking shape - I have pulled up a 1/2 meter strip of concrete up the side of our driveway and excavated to around 30cm for its 6m length. We’ll backfill this with topsoil and manure (which I have just discovered can be delivered premixed) and plant some top-rooted trees and ground cover plants. The back yard is coming along too, all the garden beds are now edged with either bricks or rough-hewn bluestone, manured and mulched with pea-straw. We should get round to planting next weekend (finally).
