what i have accomplished today

and it's just noon...i raked up all of the leaves around the house and carried them all off into the woods. i raked up about a half acre of sunflower hulls under all of the bird feeders. i soaked/cleaned/refilled all of the bird feeders. i hauled some limbs down to the burn pile where we'll have a big bonfire in the spring.

gary would be SOOOO proud of me...over the last few months, all of my shepherd's rods have become crooked because the moles tear up the ground so i went around and straightened every single one of them. i even used gary's level.

when i got all done with that ^, i went to the cemetery, raked the dirt over gary's grave and got it all nice and level, cleaned up the rest of the old flowers and then i put a shepherd's rod next to where he lays and hung some wind chimes. i can't wait till spring when i can plant some bulbs and some grass. it's such a pretty spot and i intend to make it even prettier.
