The rest of the day

ksmithRaked the backyard in the cold&drizzle. Not the best idea, given that I'm still recovering, but I had to get it done today.
Two hours and four lawn bags later, I am fairly certain that I have eliminated the most obvious wood bits that Himself would find tasty. In the process, I also gathered lots of branches and pine needles and other winter wreckage. I then let HRH loose in the yard for the first time in several days--he dashed about, danced around with some toys, and grabbed a bite of something that may have been a bit of dirt with a bit of mulch. There are still fragments out there, but the ones I did find were pretty sodden and very soft. If he eats one of those, not too concerned. Not too concerned about a bite here or there. I was worried about big pieces, and I think I got all those visible above ground.
Tree Guy came. Crabapples will be sprayed over the next several weeks.
Toilet has behaved since this morning. I am assuming, however, that this episode served as a warning shot across my bow.
Polidori Chocolates arrived. I tried the Truffaldino and the bonus Marshmallow with a cup of coffee, and they were both very very good. I'm reluctant to try any more until my taste comes back 100%, because it isn't fair to the chocolate.
The sun finally emerged late in the day. More sun tomorrow. First will come a quick round of grocery shopping, followed by a date with 25 bags of lava rock and a roll of landscape cloth.
