I had a very eventful and busy weekend. This weekend we had daylight saving time kick in, meaning we lost an hour. Despite the loss of the hour, I made the most of my weekend.
The first task we (Ming and I) had was to do some gardening work. Our yard (front and back) had been neglected for awhile due to our busy schedules. Neglected yards grow weeds ... and lots of them! We spent one morning weeding, mowing the lawn, and generally putting the yard back into shape. In addition to weeding by hand, I bought some industrial strength weed killer. Ok, I don't know if it is really industrial strength or not but it certainly looked like it was doing a good job killing the weeds. The weed killer takes a few days to completely kill the weeds but within a few hours of applying the weed killer, the weeds were already starting to yellow. Yes! The gardening tasks were much harder on the body than I anticipated and all of my muscles were aching by the end of it.
In addition to gardening, we took Coco to the puppy playground, AKA dog park. It was lovely weather so she got some sun and a chance to socialize with other dogs. We same some of the cutest dogs, which included cocker spaniels, wiener dogs, beagles, other malteses, and yorkies. Many of the dogs we saw were the cutest things and it made me want to get another dog. ^_^
Ming completed our taxes for this weekend and that was a huge task! With taxes out of the way, he was able to play his newest 360 game ... a game which he describes as really fun. I made healthy blueberry cupcakes, my favorite soup for dinner, and did the laundry. I don't think there were many moments this weekend where I wasn't doing something. It was a very fulfilling weekend and I'm glad that we got a lot done.
This coming weeekend there's a plant/flower show and I intend to be there. Stay tuned..maybe I'll find some nice things for the newly weeded garden.
