Since it is so beautiful out today, I decided to catch up on some of the outside work that DH normally does. I sprayed all of the weeds in the front and back of the house.

I also washed our van trying to conserve on water. I filled a bucket with soapy water and washed the car with it. Then I turned on the hose and rinsed it all at once. The car was so dirty that I actually had to do this twice. We get a lot of dust out here so the car will be dusty again in a few days but at least I know it has been washed. I figure I saved twice. Once on what it would cost to have the carwash do it and I also saved on water which is important with the drought conditions we have had the past few years.

Then I took the John McCain book out to the patio, sat in my lounge chair and did some very enjoyable relaxing.
