Well, this weekend has been much more restful than the last but still packed with little chores and things to do. Was up early on a Saturday to send my wife’s car in for servicing and then it’s off to the market for groceries. The hardware shop came next to replace my leaky faucet. That took quite a large amount of effort and back-breaking labor — I wonder who screwed the original faucet in, but heck, it was so tight I had to use a wrench and hammer at the same time!

Then while we had to cook dinner for a pot-luck birthday dinner we were to attend later, I figured I might as well do some gardening. On the 12th floor that is and it was really a strange feeling. I mean here I am potting plants and getting my hands dirty with soil but it’s 12 floors up and I’ve tiles for the floor. I can’t wait to get my feet back onto the ground!
