1. Figure out how to replace sprinkler heads that are not working or get someone to do it. Update: Mr. N. is looking into it for me.
2. Get Mr. N the lawn guy to trim my Sago palms from the bottom and to trim the dead leaves from the other palms. Update: He’ll bring clippers & ladder next time he comes.
3. change the pantyhose on the dryer vent (don’t ask)
4. Ask Mr. N the lawn guy to spray for weeds out back. Update: The “weeds” are grasses. If he kills them, he kills our centipede grass. He recommends killing weeds and grass in the limited area and putting in a couple of rolls of sod before the alien grasses spread.
5. Clean the stuff and leaves out of the pool machinery area.
6. Get one of those expandable mesh laundry hampers to corral beach balls.

June-July

1. Call AAA, get the wheelchair van jumped
