A little rearranging in the backyard to get stuff away from the fence lines. Builders coming on Wednesday for our new 6.5ft fence and gates!!! Eeee!!
(must keep kids out per-water-bylaw, and also discourage the munchy deer friends!)
A little rainy while I worked but it was nice. :)
Also took out the top of the tall white pipe. The joint is only 2 inches below the rocks. No one will melt having to unscrew the top with their hand in water. : )
#DIY #PoolPond #BackyardProject #Home #Today
#today en route to a #festival and the travel will take all day. But people are being nice, and I am nearly feeling chill, and I have power and WiFi for my #fediverse device, so
Welp. Was going to take advantage of the rare vacation day on a work day between the weekend and Canada Day to go buy rocks for the #poolpond but turns out the local rock/cement place is taking the day off too. Fair. 🤷♂️
I took the trailer for a bath at the car wash instead and got the watering done before the heat sets in today.
Maybe later I will go get some lengths of pipe. But I sense a swim in the lake. 🏊♂️ #today #canadaday
What are you up to today? Day off, or slaving for The Man?
#today I have done some admin for a voluntary group (though 99% had already been done for me), I will try and get my uni loaner laptop doing what I need, and I may go in to town later to meet a bunch of #fediverse weirdos...
#today I am working on the #NewScientist article splurge, and my #research (I think that I may be able to make a decent step today), and keeping an eye on my house's energy systems as the first …
#today I am starting to catch up on stuff from while I was away, including a bit of prep for my uni supervision and Journal Club tomorrow.
#today I am changing mobile phone companies after ~30Y, to save 2/3rds money for the same service... Wish me luck...
#today I am off to see my aunt on her farm in the countryside, in the pouring rain!
#today I have the house to myself!
#today generation #meterRead, #research model work (yes, I really need to put my back into it today), and catching up on the
#today some #research, #supervision, a meeting about short talks this weekend (I only have a couple in-hand out of ~8!)...
#today I will be helping out at the #KingstonCarnival as a waste marshall in the last half, and may try to catch a glimpse of the #lunarEclipse and not be panicked by the phone
#today will be #RepairCafé then a friend's birthday party and clubbing...
#today is bath and #reseach and some prep for tomorrow's #RepairCafé and reviewing my mentee's business plan...
#today had the TTK Energy Group meeting, making a tiny bit of progress on my research (testing a new workflow) using a 2-day licence (!), and will this evening meet up my old friend and co-founder...
#today (and the next few days) is due to reach ~31C and be very sunny, so the house is in in purge mode still to cool down now. This morning I will catch up on #NewScientist though I don't think that there will be such a last-minute splurge today.
#today in at uni and maybe working on salvaging my big experiment ... Still feeling very sleep deprived post-festival though I did sleep last night!
