It's only Tuesday, but already this week is approximately 357% less heartbreaking than last week, so I'm going to call that a win. :)

Lovely weather is starting to happen more often, which has me jonesing for some yard work. If anybody ever wonders what to get me for Mother's Day or my birthday, then you've gotta know the answer is DIRT. Or maybe mulch. Plus the time to work it. (I managed to get my first mild sunburn of the year this Sunday, starting to de-poop and d-ethatch the lawn. Awful yet satisfying work, that.)

In related news: on the advice of diermuid, I purchased a pooper-scooper. I've never owned one of those before, as a TOOL. I, myself, have been the pooper-scooper. Maybe it means I'm getting older, but not having to bend over for a bazillion loads of dog poop was a great relief. Maybe I'm just getting smarter?

Thanks! By "investigate," I meant "price and decide whether to purchase" one of the composting things. I've seen them in a number of catalogs. Have you any experience with one of those? I just don't know if they're quite so awesome as the advertising says.

I haven't any actual experience; I wanted to but the ex wouldn't go for it. I'll be interested to hear about your explorations on the matter. Erm, no pun intended.
