Agh! Today I bought 3 bags of concrete to fix a walkway near the house. Except after mixing it up, I realized I wanted cement and not concrete! The concrete that I bought had lots of rocks in it and is for depths of 2" or more, I just wanted to apply a skim coat and fill some holes and fix some cracked areas instead I tried to deal with the dang rocks in the mix. Also I didn't buy enough, which is a good thing - since it was the wrong stuff. (should I say it again, so I remember?)
So tomorrow, I get to do it all over again, except with the right stuff. Mixing cement is heavy work, but it feels so rewarding when it's all done and smooth and every time I look at it I say "I did that" and I feel proud...and then I go inside, shower, cook dinner and then knit. Women are amazing creatures, aren't we? Lots of ladies are as diverse or more than this... but not as many men are, don't ya think? But somehow they get the whole carport for their shop/workspace and women are happy with a little corner or a desk inside a closet for their hobbies, crafts etc. Come on girls! Time to take over the carport, we deserve the space!
However, I don't know why I'm rallying the troops... I don't even own a carport....maybe I'm just in the mood for a good old fashioned rally? Well, time to step off my soapbox, I need to go skin a buffalo ..(kidding)
