I Did Not Want To Work

Today I didn`t want to go to work, I wanted to stay home and work on Sunshine`s homestead creations since I got my package delivered and my new scent, cucumber melon, OMG! It smells so good. But I went to work. I left the hired help to work alone while I run an errand and he worked while I was gone, I was shocked he had almost all of what the job was done. I have had some sit down when I leave. I helped the last 2 hours before I called it a day. It was so hot, even in the shade, the humidity is really bad and I was soaking wet. Back at home Tony took pity on me and sat in a chair and watered the greens on the harden, to keep them alive since we are in a drought. I cam inside and cooked dinner. I am exhausted. How was your day?

Working in the heat can really exhaust you. I never feel like eating when it is so hot and even less like cooking a meal.

I have been skipping eating in the day and having an evening meal when I am settled in for the night. I do thank God for a/c.

I have allergies so bad since I mowed grass yesterday. Yes that was the good part.

Hubby does not water when I ask, and we were too tired last night. I may go water this morning. Hubby runs extension cords across to charge batteries and I cannot water then.

It was fine. I went to work, napped, and then hung out. Nothing exciting.

@andriaperry I've been up those stairs thousands of times and now I'm actually nervous every time I have to climb them. . . which is several times a day.

sometimes I fell the same and wanted just to stay at home and be with my kids and watch tv eat chips and that will refuel me and ready for work again.

Take a rest now, Andria. As for me, I went out today to have my braces adjusted. Then I went to Miniso to buy a lumbar pad and Yoga resistance strap. I would like to do some simple exercise/workout at home. But hoping and praying that I won't get palpitations right after burning some calories.

I changed one of the faucets because it was leaking and had an old fan fix.

My day was busy today. I had physiotherapy, and she really worked me hard. Some of the hardest things she does with me are for the concussion, its hard to put into words how you feel after those exercises, but it is tiring to say the least. I love the cucumber-melon scent-great choice!!

Mine was good. It sounds like you might have a good hired hand this time. Hope you get rain soon.

Sounds like you really had a busy day. I was just here at my PC. Trying to push the work on my second book of poems along. It's funny but since the first time I put together a book of poems I guess I was still in shock about the way my life changed and I did everything automatically but now I am fully aware of what I am doing and I am taking it slow and carefully so that I can come out with a great second book.

I wish you would always post about your homestead life. I love it. I love the idea of simple living. It makes me nostalgic.
