I proved to myself once again that I am no longer a spring chicken.
We had another beautiful fall day yesterday and I didn't want
to waste a minute of it. I have in years past procrastinated for to long
putting away the stuff from the front porch and raking leaves till its sooooo
cold. I had my help home for the first time in months so off we went.
Sara being on taper for swimming of course got the easy job.
She was sitting on the roof, which she loves, flinging
gross stuff from the gutters at the wheel barrel which of course her
younger brother was moving for her.
You conclude the rest, lets just say Sean needed a shower.
Meanwhile Ian and I where raking the yard and cleaning off the front porch.
The sad thing is the raking will continue. Wish we lived in Camelot where
the leaves fall into neat little piles then blow away completely at night of course.
And then of course there was the lawn to finish mowing and the barn to clean.
8 hours later I was dragging myself into the house for a well deserved shower.
I haven't pulled an all day outside cleanathon in a long time and my body is reminding
me this morning why. Pass the Advil.
It is suppose to be a yucky day today that is why I saved wallpapering for
today and did all the outside stuff yesterday. But at this point it looks
like a beautiful sunrise and not to cold. Good thing I got most everything
outside done yesterday.
My fantastic mother in law came over on Thursday to help me get started
on the wallpapering and it looks amazing.
The wallpaper was a bargain find at 3 dollars a roll.
Not sure who is going to help me today but it will be a poor
substitute.
