Tough Mudder, Closed

Yesterday it was sunny most of the day.  When I got home I did a quick survey of the property, I only saw a few small really wet areas so I made the snap decision I was going to try to mow the yard.  The first half of the session went ok however when I started behind the fence things didn’t go as well.  Dark clouds started rolling in, I hoped the rain the dark clouds normally contain would hold off.  Before any rain started I managed to get the tractor stuck in muck.  Getting out meant putting boards under the tires and pushing the Husqvarna while Cindy was at the wheel.

After that things went from bad to worse with rolling downpours starting.  I mowed the chicken yard in heavy rain.  After finishing that I had one section of the yard to go but it was flooded out again.  I relented and just mowed the high ground near the house before parking the tractor, which looked like I just went bog racing with. I looked and felt like I just jumped in the pool fully clothed.  I was annoyed I didn’t get the task completely done.

This afternoon I close on the sale of my one (bad) investment lot.  It’s a surreal feeling to be able to finally rid myself of one of these postage stamp lots after nearly two decades.  I can hopefully repeat the process with the other lot sooner rather than later.

This weekend Cindy is hosting a plant/garage sale, hoping to get rid of the excessive inventory of plants she has accumulated along with a bunch of other items.  I should take a quick run around the house/sheds to see if there is anything I can add to the collection of don’t need items.  I just have been preoccupied with other things recently.
