Feeling Accomplished

I got so much done today outside. It was so warm and no wind, full sun. I think I got sunburned on my face.
I loaded the truck 4 times with brush that I cut down and took it down to the road, unloaded it, Only once I lost a load half way down the drive so I move it by hand.
I cut down several more loads but left them for another day. I cut up old dead blackberry bushes and raked up a huge pile, I do not know what to do with these, I may burn them.
I also had to refill the dog house with fresh pine straw, so I raked up enough to fill the 4 x 4 dog house half full.
I laid the back seat down on my car and I loaded up the recyclables and two trash bags of garbage to drop at my sister place, when I go back to town. Why the car? Tony hates the way I drive a stick shift and the truck is a 5 speed.
I looked up some of the starter pots for the seed, I got my tomatoes seeds in the mail, filled those with potting soil but I won`t` sow the seed till the moon is right, that should be Saturday.
Last, I nailed all the nails down that had worked up on the back stairs.
I am proud of the progress I have made on this homestead these few days. Next is pricing the buildings, I may do that while its raining tomorrow.
I wanted to make sure I did not pull anything out of place so I hung on my teeter for a few minutes and yes, there was a pop of my spine realigning.
I did take pictures with the fire now I just need to figure out how to get them out and on my desk top.
What did you get done today?

I got nothing accomplished. I went to the doctor in the morning b/c I thought I had strep. The test was negative and the doctor said no. He was concerned that I've been struggling to breathe and said that I'm breathing at only 75% capacity after he saw my peak flow results. So he gave me some Zyrtec to dry my sinuses out b/c he thinks post-nasal drip is causing the throat irritation. Well I haven't been on that in years and it knocked me out for like 4+ hours.

@andriaperry Yes, I'm improving and the fresh air helped a bit but tonight my body is feeling it again. =( Maybe I did too much earlier.

Wow you will sleep good tonight. I felt exhausted just reading it. You certainly have a lot of energy. I worked all day and that was enough for me.

They are calling for a couple days rain and cold coming so that motivated me to get it done.

are photos taken with a digital camera? if you have a sd card in it, just put that into your computer or just use a cable to connect them to each other.

on a phone? just connect it to your computer with a cable.
i have a laptop, and i just connect my phone with the charging cord to the usb.

I have a kindle fire that I barely can run, its new to me. I posted the photos to one of my sites so maybe I can make a shortcut to the desktop and keep those photos there. Mt camera broke where the little things touch the batteries so no way I can make it work, I do have an SD card but no new photos on it because of that broken place.
