Still Building
Much of today went for additional work on the giant play structure. I got it leveled, added a few more structural members, and attached the ladder, slide, and climbing wall. It only took two more trips to the hardware store (one with Thomas along, who was quite excited about riding in the truck) to get that far, too. With the new stuff to play on, the kids were happy to spend a few hours out in the yard after lunch. They would have spent more time there, but I yanked them back in and ran them all through the bathtub before they could get sunburned. I wasn’t so lucky myself; arms and face are distinctly red, though not overly painful, at the moment.
Didn’t make much progress on the work front. I spent a while trying to unscrew the server that someone else screwed up, but without any real effect.
For dinner, I made steak sandwiches and fruit and salad. Easy meal that everyone liked.
Got the kids to bed and then was down snoozing pretty quickly myself.
