We reached sixty degrees this weekend and...we had sunlight ALL weekend. My snow had just finished melting. Unfortunately after a whole winter my yard looked like a minefield! I have two dogs. I don't have anyone who would care to do that kind of dirty work for me and I wouldn't blame them either. So I went out Saturday morning and thought I would just clean up a small portion of it. I actually felt pretty good...so I did about one quarter of it. Sunday morning I got out of bed to see the sun shining again...I went straight to my work and by 4 o'clock I had finished and burned 50 wheelbarrows of sticks, leaves, dried grass etc. By that time I was determined to finish it all...at 7 p.m. it totaled out at 58 wheel barrows! I realize it is probably not the best that I burned it all but I am bionic you know and need bionic knees as well. It would be almost impossible for me to try to stuff what would have been over 100 bags of yard waste. This morning the first thing I did was to look out at the back yard. It looks soooo nice...I can't wait for the leaves and little things to start poking their heads out of the dirt! Come onnnnnnnn Spring! ...and OH! I discovered new product at our local liquor store (The Bank of Liquors....isn't that a great name!) I had gone in there for my Diet Coke and this looked like something I had to try! I must admit I had two of them over Sat and Sunday... little motivation...but they are sooooooo good! It's like having a Bloody Mary with a beer chaser in a can! LOL!
So that's a little plug for them. I just read the weather report...we are supposed to get snow later this week! I can NOT believe it!
