Yesterday's 'I must do that' was putting vinegar on the front steps which are green with algae because of all the pots. I only had a litre so I diluted it, but I'm not sure the mix was strong enough to kill it all. It takes a couple of days before the final result so I can't tell yet. I should do the path as well really. That'll have to wait for another day.Today's job was putting up the curtain between the front doors to stop the winter draughts. It's noticably cooler already and we get gales around this time of year so I wanted it in place before that.This version of the September Challenge is working really well for me because it means I find myself thinking 'I must do that' far less then normal because if it's that obvious, after the first week those 'in your face' jobs have all been done. Makes for a much more peaceful permanent inner nagging voice, like it's been muted. Not sure what tomorrow's job will be, but there will be something. There always is.See you on the other side.Better is good enough.5
