  Phew, that was a productive afternoon. Pulled up all the weeds and dead mulch in half of our side garden, plus pruned a bunch of the dead fronds from the palm trees, then put weed mat down and fresh mulch. The other half will have to wait for another day because a) I'm out of steam, b) there's way more weeds than the half I did, and c) the garbage bin is full.

  Got a bit more of the garden bed done this afternoon, including a drain grate thing (it's not wonky, it's just angled slightly downwards). Previously the rain that fell on the pergola came down the drainpipe and dispersed through the dirt, which ended up just dribbling out from between the wood and causing a big puddle over the back-right of the bricks. I expect the water will still come through the wood but hopefully it's far enough to the left that the water will just flow down onto the grass now. 🤞🏻
