Next weekend, I'm

Doing masonry on about 40 feet of retaining wall.
Putting up 100 feet of fence panels.
Adding 8 inches of cellulose insulation to my attic.
Chopping what's left of the almond tree I cut down two weekends ago.
Mowing the backyard.
Doing paint touch-up on the back of the house.

And none of this includes work I'm doing on an Access front end for my parent's company and a play I'm writing. And, of course, I'll still be spending the bulk of my time with my wife and daughter.

If you don't believe me, feel free to come over and help.

I'd help ya but I'm on the other side of the country. I have plenty of my own projects to do so you could have been called up from the reserves list. 😀
