A productive weekend in the garden followed by back spasms on Monday morning seems par for the course in the early spring (faux spring?). The insulated cover came off of one faucet so I could do some watering with a hose that is out of storage and back in use.

The industrial-sized dustmop made a circuit of the house and the easiest way to be sure I got all of the dust out of it was to run the vacuum over it. So I emptied a full vacuum tank of dog hair into today's trash and the house looks much better, no more dusty hair tufts (surely not "dust kittens" when formed by dog hair?)
