Digging

Felt like crap on Friday, but better this weekend.  Wanted to get outside, but didn't feel good enough for a long bike ride.  Decided to start digging (literally) into the stump in the back patio.

At this point I've dug about 80% of the dirt out, and removed the last of the cinder block edging, so now I have a flat surface and know how deep I'll need to go when I get the stump grinder.  Odds are this will take a while, and I ran out of steam after doing this.

Here is a reminder of that that stump looked like when I moved in.

On Sunday I did actually start digging for the egress window in the basement.  I'll probably pick at the stump here a little at a time, as I'll want to have as much of the stump clear of the dirt before I rent a stump grinder so that hopefully I can finish with the stump grinder in one day.

Also started mudding the half bath, but need a better mud mixer before I can finish that.
