A Hard Day’s Work
July 28, 2025
Well, let’s say a medium day’s work.
Here, at the end of July, I finally cleaned all the backyard furniture, which is to say:
- removed cushions from the patio chairs and beat the crap out of them with the BBQ spatula (great tool!)
- washed the patio chairs, every nook and cranny
- hung the covers over the chairs and power washed those, then let them dry
- washed the patio table, every nook and cranny, including the underside and base
- shook out the patio umbrella
- wiped down the BBQ
- pruned the bushes around the hammock
- cleaned the hammock and hammock stand
- cleaned the hammock umbrella
- washed the 3 deck chairs and 2 deck tables
- wiped down the deck railings
- replaced the cushions on the patio chairs and re-covered them
Took about 3 1/2 hours!
Then I made myself a smoofie and rocked in one of those clean deck chairs for a very long time, before I moved to the hammock and lay there for an even longer time.
What a great day!
