Got it done

I was worrying about getting the front yard mowed to look nice for the holiday. I put it off, but it is done now. After that, I soaked in a bath with epsom salts to feel good. Still have that cold. Tomorrow is Friday. We have a long weekend for the Labor Day Holiday. That is why I was wanting the lawn mowed. The parade sets up to get in line in the field across from my house. I think I am ready for "early to bed".

Could be allergies, could be a cold. It just causes a tickle now and then. I eat a piece of chocolate to help that

@GardenGerty hopefully jest allergies, though those can be very wearin', too. we've some odd weeds bloomin' out here this late summer. don't reckon i know what they'd be?? prolly need to do some research'n such. hopin' my locally grown raw honey keeps such miseries 't bay. dark chocolate fixes most all thingies, yes?

Labor Day weekend yay! That is wonderful. I always love a warm bath with epsom salt. It's so relaxing plus the fact that epsom salt flashes out the toxins in our body.

Well that night a big, BIG storm rolled through. Knocked out power. I was afraid I would not get up for work. That was Thursday. Friday night I slept like a log.

I'm sorry to hear that you still have that cold. You will have lots of noise and excitement right near you soon.

Could be allergies. Maybe I am allergic to work. No real body aches, just a cough that is at times productive. No fever either. Lots of fatigue.
