I Did It Again...

Yesterday I had mentioned that I was going to pick up tree branches in our "yard" (acre), so when I mowed I wouldn't have to stop and pick them up. Well, I did it again!!! After picking up the tree branches, I decided since we had gas for the mower I would mow!! Not only did I mow the front half acre, I did my MIL's front yard, and I ended the day with doing our little front "yard." When I was mowing around the chicken pen, the chickens all cam up along he fence. They remembered last summer when I mowed by their pen, the lawn mower would blow fresh grass into their pen!! Do you ever start out doing something and decide that more needs done, so you "overdo it" and do it all in one day? My back doesn't hurt too bad considering.... but I took a soaking bath this morning!! ~Peace~ photo courtesy of https://pixabay.com/en/lawnmower-lawn-mower-lawn-mower-155231/

When I was younger, I used to "overdo" it all the time outside. I just enjoyed it so much.

Oh yes I do that quite often actually. Then I usually end up regretting it! Lol. I am glad your back doesn't hurt too bad.

I think we have all done to much a time or two. But when you are up in age as I am it's good to be careful not to over do it.

Yes! Every weekend when I finally have the time to clean the house! You'd think that I was getting ready for a huge inspection because I thoroughly spring clean every week.

I think it's a lot easier to do things all at once and be done with it, even if you pay for it with an aching body.
