Kudos to Sadistic Nick

I got several compliments on my swimming today. In particular, one person said my front crawl is really powerful because I pull through the entire stroke. Mike, the powerswim coach said my times are very good for someone who normally swims only once a week. I may not swim enough, but Nick has made my strokes very efficient, and that makes up for a lot, apparently.

Gardening

I am completely and utterly filthy. The new shed is half built. Most of the yard furniture is assembled and in place. The garlic and onions are planted. The raspberry cans have been pruned and cleaned out. I still need to plant the red currant, potatoes, and shallots. We won't even discuss the planters for herbs and tomatoes...

I need another raised bed. And a bath.
