once upon a time the formerly ashamed leaf pile began to grow. it was raked and added to and shaped. cartloads of other types of leaves were added. five days before the failure deadline, it was a good size. it stopped being ashamed and became a tiny bit proud of itself.
Well, isn’t that nice! Of course, that leaf pile is OUR leaf pile. It actually has grown quite a bit. I think the yard will be raked a LOT tomorrow (I organized a Rake-a-Thon) and will be pretty leafless- except for the trees and the pile. At that point, the leaf pile should be almost meeting my expectations. By late Tuesday afternoon, the leaf pile will have definitely met my expectations. And since Wednesdays are so hectic, even though Wednesday is my birthday, I won’t be celebrating it until the next day, a day off because of parent-teacher conferences. So I rake as much as possible then, and the Thursday leaf pile should just barely exceed my expectations.
gotta go
Bye!
