Last evening's adventures

First thing I did when I got home was to finish the zipper units for the next 8 project bags.
Next I headed out to the garage to figure out what area to sort out next. I decided I needed to use these bags of topsoil and sand for the reason I bought them.
I bought this material to fill in the ruts in the backyard made by the skid steer that pulled out the old concrete steps. First, I needed to weed wack the grass short where the ruts were located then I got out the leaf blower to move the grass and leaves out of the way.
I mixed the topsoil with some sand to lighten the mix. I shoveled the mix and leveled out the mix as I went. I used up four bags of topsoil and 1 1/2 bags of sand. It was hard work lugging those bags around and getting them mixed!  It hardly looks like I made a dent!  LOL!!
It was almost 7 pm so I called it quits. I have three bags of topsoil left to spread, but I am going to need more topsoil and sand to get everything filled in. At least they are out of the garage now!
I finished the sampler. I need to make another card so I will be working on that this week.

You put the scull where I thought it would be. That's muscle building work moving those heavy bags.
