Default I am so sore and tired!

So I rented a debris bin and it came on Tuesday. Wednesday I spent about 6 hours pruning and de-weeding and taking down a blue spruce tree. Thursday I spent another 6+ hours cleaning out the garage and organizing stuff. Today I worked from 11am to 10:13pm cleaning out the back yard and getting rid of stuff from under our deck. I took at least 50 trips from the back yard to the bin in the driveway , then I moved a load of pavers, then I transplanted a magnolia tree, and planted 23 plants, and started joining 2 large flower beds together and did a ton more of de-weeding. I am very sore, very tired, but so glad to be getting rid of stuff and getting things done. Sunday afternoon it's back to finish the garage and Monday to finish the backyard!

Wow you have been busy - isn't it a great feeling though when you accomplish so much - You need to reward yourself after all your hard work x

Wish whatever bug got into you to bravely launch such grand-scale projects would bite me too! Hats off to you.

Wow! With that much energy and organization, I would like to invite you to my place!! I have at least that much that needs doing. My 'yard' is more like acreage! After about 3 yrs drought and late freezes this spring, I have all kinds of dead wood and dead trees and many other jobs to take care of. Wish me luck. Mine will have to be done in one job at a time! May be done by next year.
