#SublimeSunday - Back-breaking Labour

avatar
(Edited)

Sundays are great whether you get plenty of relaxation in or spend the time outside being productive. They are sublime when you get to do both and plan out the work to be done in your kingdom.

The project this weekend is a conquering of no-mans land. The placement of the neighbour’s new fence last year created a strip of useless weed growing and refuse gathering.

My solution to this issue is contained, in part, by the contents of this delivery.

It is a full yard of medium river rocks which was delivered for an investment of $125. I would have preferred a delivery closer to the eventual destination but more about that in a bit.

In order to reclaim this space from the fluffy patch of weeds I regularly had to battle with the weed whacker. When I asked for some stuff to put under the stones so that the weeds wouldn’t grow up through, I was told landscapers fabric would fit the bill. $15 okay!

A couple hours of hard labour it what it took to hand bomb 2/3 of a yard of river rock. I kept thinking about Larry Bird and how lugging rock on the farm jacked his back and shortened his career, when he was 20 years younger than I am now. I should have weighed the full bucket but estimate it was somewhere around 75 pounds, and I pulled probably 40 of them.

What do you do after the neighbour shakes his head in disapproval through the dining room window? Grab yourself a solid double IPA and play some D&D like a card-carrying nerd.
