More home maintenance adventures.

Heading back up to Yuba City on Saturday, March 31st. Didn't get much done as far as yardwork in Hayward goes, because the ground was too wet to consider rolling a mower around on. New mower purchase for Yuba City house scheduled for Saturday. More silliness I have to look into. I have to find out who is on our neighborhood 'Architectural Compliance Committee' to get permission to put up new fencing and a storage shed for all the gardening tools. Aggravating, but, it's all buried in the paperwork we signed when we bought the house. Enough legalistic bandiflage that, considering all of the houses in the neighborhood no longer conform to the provisions of the covenant, I seriously doubt there is a committee in place. Bandiflage is a word I encountered in Nathan Lowell's Solar Clipper series, and taken in context, appears to be a word he coined to describe obfuscatory verbiage. At any rate, going to be hauling some tools and other items up this weekend so I can get stuff done without having to run to Home Depot or Lowe's 2 or 3 times during the weekend. The to-do list just keeps getting longer. It seems like the moment I get something on the to-done list, 2 more things turn up. Probably just my perception of things.
