Long Day

Today we planted seed, fertilized and spread cow manure for the new lawn.  It was alot of work.  6,000sf doesn't seem so big until you have to spread forty bags of cow manure (and forty bags was not enough -- we still need forty more!).  It is only the beginning however.  Now we have to do round the clock watering to keep it moist for the next three to four weeks.  Loads and loads of positive thoughts won't hurt either.  Although I am not really one to believe in the positive-thoughts-brings-a-positive-outcome-mumbo-jumbo -- you either did it right or wrong and time will tell.

Tomorrow is another day of time-consuming yard work as well.  We have to unload forty bags of mulch (80lbs each) into our border area as a "dressing."  I am so tired right now I just can't wait for tomorrow!
