Summer Holiday Weekend Recap
Hello and happy Monday to you! Did you melt this weekend? My Lord it was hot. And what do you do when you're us on a hot weekend? Dig out a tree obviously. 😑 Remember the pic of the tree from last week after the landscapers hacked it up? It went bye-bye. We were going to attempt to save it to possibly see if my friend could plant it at her new home (even though it should be done when dormant.) Well, after determining the roots attach to the Earth's core, we had to scrap that idea. We tried to get out early enough but it wasn't. We hacked off the top in sections using some really great pruning shears that made that job super easy then the Mr lobbed off the top so we could begin on the roots. We bought a shovel called the Root Slayer and I will say it did an amazing job getting through most of it. Neither of us are at our strongest right now so despite knowing we could've continued with chipping away at ...
Seeing Lazer tag fully intact in its box was awesome. And for $35 it was a deal but you really can't play that by yourself so rather useless. Still there is nothing like having the box in your hands to remind you of what it felt like Christmas morning when you opened that very thing. Happy February everybody!
ReplyDeleteHow did it get to be February already? Geesh it's going fast.
ReplyDeleteErrands, housework, the usual. A new fitness center opened in town though and yesterday I went in for a lesson on how to use the equipment. I'm not sure how often I'll make it, but it has to be at least 10x per month to make it worthwhile so that's my goal.
Saturday I had a memorial service to go to out in the suburbs and that was a really wonderful ceremony. I didn't get home until mid-afternoon and just felt plain pooped. I felt that way all day yesterday and was pretty nauseated, so I didn't get much accomplished. I did managed to change out my c-pap hose that arrived in the mail and was able to use it for the first time in months. And boy what a difference! I managed to sleep roughly 6 straight hours and have more energy today than I've had in probably 4 months. I'm still struggling with this pain near my sternum and will bring it up to the doc when I see her. I have a load of laundry going, will run out for a couple of items I forgot at the grocery store, then have an appointment at the YMCA with a gal who's going to show me around and help me set some things up. Now I'm paying bills for the month to get that off my plate for the week. Fun, fun... =o)
