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 ...
Sorry you're up, but I'm sure it's temporary. No real plans for the weekend. I need to get some outside time in for the little guy today because tomorrow is going to turn cold.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the bloat! I am off to work my second job and volunteer at a hurricane sandy donation center. that's all but it's all good!
ReplyDeleteWe're picking up our moving truck tomorrow so we can start loading all the boxes. Feels like life has been suspended while we get this done, so I haven't been getting any exercise per se and tracking what I'm eating is a joke. Up 11 pounds from my lowest, grrr.
ReplyDeleteDang bloating! You'll show him who's boss, though, so don't fret. Focus on a night shopping day and hanging out with your friend. I had an eye doctor appt this morning and can finally see after the eye dialation. After $800 smackaroonies, I should be able to see in about a week when my new contacts come in (along with my glasses). Just came back from running a bunch of errands, which feels so good, and will now tackle the spare bedroom, which will be a three week project I'm sure. =o)
ReplyDeleteUgh. I HATE bloating. I gain seven pounds of water weight during PMS. I have to keep two pairs of big jeans in the closet since nothing else fits.
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying a very relaxing 3 days off after working like crazy. Starting Tuesday I work again like crazy!
ReplyDeleteHope the stress figures itself out :)
Well, it SHOULD be a Latino superhero, hah! I hope the stress lets up soon = ) That weight will be gone before you know it.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about the stress! I'm an email away if there's anything I can do.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the stress and weigh in and I think if that was a superhero, he would be defeated pretty quickly lol. Who can wrestle while bloated :)
