Ah, you gotta make the best of life while you're young. Right now, weekend (Wet Willie)

Wie geht's?

We tend to pack a great deal into our weekends.

Saturday: 

• Trimmed the smoke tree so that the birds stop spreading guano over my car bonnet 
• Erected some scaffolding that we got from Jade last weekend
• Used the scaffolding to repair some guttering that has been pesky since we arrived at Maple Grove three years ago
• Moved some garden furniture and planter boxes into my music room Zen garden
• Repaired a trough that had a faulty ballcock last weekend but at that point I had to cobble together a repair. During the week I bought another joiner and put that on. So far so good.
• Wrote some posts for Goo Goo G'Joob blog - Grateful Dead albums and a Paul Kantner album (somehow that blog has gone viral with thousands of people reading my posts)
• Went for a 6k walk along the Tuki Tuki river walkway - this time a big loop that we hadn't done before. That added 7,000 steps to my step counter (18,000 for the day is a 2022 record). 
• After the walk we enjoyed sharing a three pepper chicken Subway, two cookies and an ice tea.
• After returning home and put all the winter wood boxes away until next autumn.
• Adjusted the watering systems to the three garden areas around the house.

Sunday:

• Repotted a plant that was looking a bit wilty, moved a few things into pots that weren't growing where they were - a lemon tree and a jasmine.
• Cleaned and water blasted the back door area where the wood boxes had lived
• Caught up on the morning's Premier League action - exciting Leeds last gasp victory against the scousers at Anfield! (Arsenal in action at 3am Monday morning - so that was an early start - 5 nil to the gunners!!)
• Also caught up with the NBA world series - Houston Astros vs the Philadelphia Phillies - game two. One all now.
• Family zoom as usual on a Sunday - Adam and Jade joined us, Samantha was at a Halloween party and Keegan was unavailable.
• Walked the dogs in Waipukurau and did another 10,000 step day. Phew.

I'm an early riser and while Jacky and I don't muck about, that list is ridiculous!

Love and peace - Wozza
