Oh, sweet weekend. How I need you right now.

I do have some plans, for a change. Last weekend I took down some minor trees and the front hedges. This weekend I need to mow and take down the driveway hedges a little. They really are too big for me to do too much to them, plus, I kind of like them huge and imposing. But they are starting to shade the driveway and reach for the house, and must be culled.

I may, may, upgrade my video card. I dunno yet. I want to make my PC last a bit longer at this point. I'm also thinking I need to up the size of my external backup, as I've just about filled this one and it's giving signs of failure.

Get the kids ready for school.

Sleep. I haven't been doing enough of it this week and it's time to get my butt caught up on it.
