I went out and took a few wheelbarrows of dirt out of the shed area. Before this I took some empty pails to the gravel place and bought 284 pounds of rock for under $6. It's 20 cents per pound. Finished cleaning up the dirt under the floor area and got the timbers situated. I bought water softener crystals before it rained so I could line the bottom of each side of the timbers with salt as termite proofing. Poured the gravel over the salt. Now I'm ready for the wood floor joists to go over this, probably tomorrow. while i was at Lowes i found a Scott lawn patch kit which has mulch, seed and fertilizer mixed up to repair grass areas. I put this over the new dirt I put down between the flagstones on the path in back. In a few weeks I'm hoping this will be grass growing between the flagstones. Dinner was BBQ chicken and southern potato salad. Did some more portfolio adjusting today. I need to withdraw money to pay the credit card bill. This bill is over $9,000 and has the European trip, some Stoneybrook charges, and the New york trip. Even more amazing the credit card balance is over $10,000. Ouch!
Listening to Merry Widow tonight from the Met. I'm really enjoying this, it's nice light music with good tunes.
