Pat Myself on the Back

Look what I did! I cut all of this stuff back and clear out some old plants. Our agreement when we moved in is that he would take care of the lawns and I would take car of the beds. I have seriously slacked on my duties for good reason. It's not that he won't take care of them, he just has no idea how. I figured I am feeling pretty good and it's not going to last so I might as well get it done in one day. Aaron came back out and cut everything down and got it all into barrels. After all of this, some housework, rearranging our closet, and making dinner I was seriously immobile. I could hardly make it to bed. I totally overdid it but it felt good at the same time, I can almost stand to look out my windows!

Wow that is a lot of work. Are you already nesting? I love that point in pregnancy when all you feel like doing is cleaning, but it does wear you out by the end of the day.

I am totally impressed. I've never been that motivated to do "outside work."

Reading your post made me motivated to chop up some palm tree fronds that I had in the back yard. I figured if you can do it pregnant, I should be able to get off my lazy bottom and work outside. So I did it-thanks to you our back yard looks a ton better! Thanks for the motivation!
