Did some really deep watering of the trees and shrubbery around the house, cleaned out the two water troughs and got a bunch of stuff organised in the garage.
Used about ten of the totes so this turned out to be a good purchase. They fit well on my existing shelves and really organize stuff. Have a separate one for painting (rollers, masking and brushes), one for wood finishing (glue, putty, sand paper), one for pest control (rodent and insect traps, insecticides), batteries (chargers and inverters), first aid (bulk bandages, pads, Kerlix, vet wrap), battery powered tools, etc...
Brought a bunch of old boxes out to be recycled Monday as well as several bags of crap for the dumpster. Making a dent.
I never got around to the hamburger last night - had the last of the tri-tip thinly sliced with my salad and two ears of fresh corn and a peach for desert. Firing up the grill in a few minutes - do it tonight.
Also, doing a beef-bone stock in my slow cooker - oven roasted a couple pounds of nice shank bones with good marrow (375° for an hour) and into the slow cooker with some herbs, an onion, a half-cup of vinegar (helps to break down the marrow), cover with water and cook on low heat (low simmer) for 48 hours. Tastes wonderful and I am only half-way through the cooking process.
