This Monday was Labour Day, which means little to me except that we got a long weekend out of it. I do enjoy not having to get up for work on a Monday morning! We fit a lot into it, too.
Friday night - Operation Entertainment Book dinner out with Skry in the Flying Burrito Brothers. I haven't done these calculations for a while and there's a backlog, so bear with me:

Alright, so that's the Operation Entertainment Book update out of the way!
Labour Day is traditionally when NZ gardeners plant out their tomatoes and peppers and other frost-hating plants. We did not realise that apparently we should have waited for the actual day, and planted ours out on Saturday, on a lovely hot sunny afternoon. Eight hours later, we had rain, wind, and hailstones! Our poor tomatoes :(
Oh well, the rest of the weekend was lovely, and today was an absolute scorcher. I planted some rose bushes and a swan plant (to attract monarch butterflies) and sat on the deck watching the chickens while Skry was off watching some wrestling match at a friend's house. It's all good.

It wasn't just any wrestling match - it was WWE Cyber Sunday, an important event in anyone's opinion!
You did get a good amount of gardening done too. It looks great and is a huge improvement on the way that it looked beforehand :D
