More brush clearing!

Category: Yard work! | Posted: Mon Mar 01, 2010 1:20 am

It was another nice day so we started it by going out for breakfast. It made us late getting down to work on clearing the brush. When we got down there, it was still there so we started in with the loppers and the rake. I started moving the piled up brush back to the area where we will burn it on a day that's not windy or raining. We didn't get as much accomplished as we wished because Tammy (landlady) came with her father to bring some skirting and stuff for the mobile home he will be moving into. dr and her father stood at the back of the truck and talked and Tammy helped me move some more brush. We talked about what might go where and how we might do it and she also cautioned us not to do too much. One would think we were "old" retired people. But, we do know when to quit, even if there is still stuff to be done. It will still be there on Wednesday or Thursday when the rain comes and goes for the week. Maybe it will go for the week anyway.
Sometimes it seems to stay for the week.
So, tomorrow I will sew since I cut a tubful of new things to sew. Hopefully I won't goof up and sew something backwards again. I hate that!

Noooooo...not because you guys are old--because you can overdo easily and get all sore.
I have to control myself every summer with the work. Having not used those same muscles for several months, thet get sore the first few weeks, if I don't look out.
Every year I say that I will be careful and not over do...and every year I do just a leedl too much and get sort of stiff and sore. Some people never learn, eh? :-)

As Sjoed says, easy does it until one's back in shape again. I'm glad you're wise enough to not overdo anything.
