Oh My Achy, Breaky Body

Going from 0 to 60 is what my body feels like it did today. This old body is unaccustomed to physical labor. When you have several tons of wood fall out of your trees, then you have to pick it up. And we did.

I fear what this old body will feel like tomorrow. Just bending over and picking up even the lightest of sticks would make me sore. But, dragging big branches to the fire pit is likely to make me very tender for the next 24-48 hours. Wonder what the massage therapist is doing tomorrow? Think I'll be making an appointment if at all possible.

It amazes me how generous people can be. Our next door neighbors gave up their entire Sunday to help us today. The work wasn't easy, but these folks hung with us the whole day. So giving. So appreciated.

There's a long nap in my near future. Night night.
