Today I finished digging up the patchy grass around our tree where nothing actually grows well. Made a nice oval "garden" and filled it with lovely mulch. A pretty yard as a birthday present to my pa.

SNE. Today I personally invited my parents' friends for dinner, made dinner, and hosted the evening while my parents went out for my sister's band concert... never done that before!

Today I did something I've never done before, but it's a secret, so you'll just have to take my word for it. 

(secret revealed: I made icecream cake for my dad's birthday! Two cakes actually: mocha fudge and raspberry. yummm)

Normally when we cut our grass in the backyard we cut from the house to the back, move the trampoline, and cut the other half. Apparently it's good to switch the direction that you cut so your grass doesn't grow long and slanted. We gave our trampoline away last week so I finally am able to cut lengthwise in one go! Woohoo!

Also, I road over a bumble bee with my bike today Never done that before!

Something New Everyday. Now, I don't mean to offend churches... or maybe I do.. but today I felt more welcome than I had in a long time. I went to a church where I didn't know anyone, and before I sat down I was genuinely greeted 5 times, two I'd which became actual conversations. Before I'd left, that was doubled, and it didn't feel fake at all. 

In addition, I taught my dad how to use kijiji today and we sold this table saw within three hours! Never done that before!
