Playing Catch Up

The last two days have been a bit rough. Thursday night I got home around 9:30 and went straight to bed. I woke up at 1:30am realizing I hadn’t worked out. Ugh! I couldn’t believe it. I just went straight to bed, didn’t even think about it. I was up for most of the night after that. I went to work and my allergies were making my eyes feel like they were going to bust out of my head. Then my legs and feet started aching. I’m not sure what caused that. Sometimes I wonder with my diet that my body is adjusting to not receiving the same amount of crap it’s use to and is adjusting. So because my legs hurt so bad last night and I was exhausted from not getting any sleep…I once again went straight to bed. I feel like I have failed because I have not done my 40 minutes for 40 days. I just need to keep plugging along. I am starting to see results again. I do not want to make it official until Tuesday though. That is my official way in day. As long as I do well this weekend I will be able to share the good news with all of you.
Today’s plans are going to be involving yard work!!! Yay!! I am a sucker for good weather and working out in the yard. We will be building our raised garden boxes this weekend and doing some branch removal to open up our garden area to more sunlight. My apple and peach tree have started to bud. I need to get a string of lights on my peach tree. I want to keep the buds from freezing so that I can have some fresh peaches to work with this summer. The blackberry bush I planted last weekend seems to be doing well.  There is no new growth but none of the leaves have wilted. I planted pansies in my front planters this weekend and they wilted a little with the cold weather at night but I hope that they pull through with the warm weather today. Oh, I have to brag!!!! We have the GREENEST grass on our block. We are very proud of this. There is a sense of pride when you come home and you are looking at yards and you see your own yard and it looks amazing!!! The back yard is lagging a little bit but the weed and feed has been applied. It seems to have been abused in the past and takes a little longer to come around.
I need to get this day started. I hope you all have a wonderful day and get to enjoy the sunshine!

  1. As far as the leg thing I would get that as a prego lady for not drinking enough and not haveing enough potassium in my diet. It seems that what was enough for me b4 the little person was there was not enough after. but they went away when I had enough h2o and K in my diet. I dont know if that is your problem but I would get it really bad at night and only in my legs. Worth a try. Glad to see your yard comming along. Looks like we will get to fly after all so Im going to need your phone number so I can call you when we get to Allen's parents house!
