Actually, she mentioned to our neighbour yesterday that we were both retired, so I guess that I no longer have to continue my less than half-hearted job search. Sweet!!
However, the garden work continues and it took about 4 hours to weed the Weigela and Rose of Sharon hedge-to-be.

I help the bees and they help me. Win-Win!
BTW that hedge is about 30’ long.

Chain link?

Yes. We went to the meeting at the town hall a few years ago (joint builder and town reps) and asked about the fence when the old private school was torn down. We were told it would be wood. Alas, the fence on the other end of the development was put in as wood but on our side, it was chain link. After about 40 emails, I finally gave up as the town wanted me to prove that the builder promised wood. Grrrr.
Now all you need are a couple of Pit bulls pacing the perimeter to complete the look.

Actually, there are two dogs at the next house down by our yellow shed, which is also chain link (the whole 18-' (we're pie shaped). They're tiny and yip and yap like crazy.
I must admit. I am a bit of a fence snob.
They'll keep the riff-raff away.

As you can tell, there's not a great deal of change-up in my daily shaves, except for the date and blade-use count. That works for me!
Happy Friday!

It’s not my shave, so I don’t get my undies in a bunch about yours. That’s of course when I wear underwear. Which is rarely. And it’s usually quite exotic. But I digress.
Damn. This isn’t the Underwear of the Day Thread. Sorry @woodpusher

... and the rain continues! Woot! We got a break yesterday afternoon and I spent the time lounging in the backyard, reading, and sipping/chugging margaritas made with Costco's mixer. It was quite limey with built-in salt and pleasant enough but not outstanding.
Shavewise, swapped over to my @Rudy Vey Shavemac and what a great knot this is. The handle isn't too shabby either.
