Gale-Force Wind
O.M.G.
I did get the lawn mowed and fertilized, and the front garden watered, but what an adventure! It is a beautiful warm sunny day, but the wind was totally out of hand. I went to start the mower, but it was having none of it.
Out of gas.
I searched the garage, only to discover that my gas can had disappeared. Oh well, there was still the big one that was unused. I went to the gas station and filled 'er up.Got home and discovered the reason the can was unused—the lid for the spigot leaks. Back in the car and off to Home Depot to get a new gas can. The wind was blowing so hard that it blew gas out as I poured it.
Finally got the lawn mowed, and decided to go ahead and fertilize while I was thinking about it. Got that done, but with all the running around, it didn't leave me any time to pot up and plant some of my purchases from this weekend.
I feel blown to bits.
