Code Enforcement is keeping tabs on us. I just started today's update when my phone rang and it was, of course, Code Enforcement asking for a verbal update. I gave one (as happily both piles of paving stones that has been one of their concerns) were removed over the weekend. And the rat traps are back as I verified when we were working on the yard over the weekend). The officer said he'd be back out to check, which from my point of view is redundant, but I suppose they get lied to a lot.

In mom news, we connected on the phone yesterday afternoon and, for a change, she called me. She was doing pretty good although she was sleepy and her hip was hurting.

Last night I met with K2TOG Minneapolis Online! for an hour. I'm glad I exited the call when I did as I wasn't expecting it to take 45 minutes to wash the dishes and brush my teeth. It was slightly after 9:00 when I returned to the living room to bike, so I fired up the newest episode of Annika and peddled while I watched. I'm still enjoying the show, particularly the lead character's musings on history and mythology.

This morning I switched from my summer to my winter shoes. There was a light dusting of snow on the grass when we stepped outside, so I'm glad I didn't procrastinate.

It makes mo sense for code enforcement to insist on things being kept up in the winter. I don't know how they expect that. It's cold and there's snow. The only thing I can think of is to hire somebody. I don't see how you guys can do it yourself. I have so much to do for my house and that's going to have to be what I do. I can't handle this yard on my own and my mower won't do it so I'm going to have to pay somebody else on top of him. I hate this. I miss my mother's old guy who passed away. He did this stuff and just added on the stuff that he saw that needed done. This mower just won't lift a finger extra even if he's getting paid. I keep chanting to myself I've got to get moved.
