Week 5

This week I am thankful for my sore muscles. Yes, you heard me right. If Nate reads this, he will think he is seeing things because I am a whiny baby when I am in pain. Yesterday I spend the day doing yard work. Which I love to do. I am grateful for an amazing body that does the things that I tell it to do. I used the weed whacker, used the blower, mowed, we trimmed trees and got rid of the branches, the yard looks great. I love being out there and smelling the fresh grass. It would be very sad to me if I couldn't do those things. And my sore muscles let me know that I worked hard! (Of course, if I worked hard like that all the time they wouldn't hurt.) I think our bodies are so amazing!

You amaze me with your many talents in the yard. I think my dad made me do so much yard work growing up, that now I hate it. Way to work those muscles of yours!!!

I want to come see your pretty yard! I miss working out in the yard. I need to plant my garden and some new flowers. Thanks for the motivation!

All the years I lived at home, I did not enjoy the yard work, now any chance I get to work in the dirt and make my bit of the world pretty I take it.

Love it! I want to see your yard-sounds like you know your stuff.

Good for you! I have always admired your yard abilities! I remember seeing you mow that yard in Midvale!! Remember when you had chickens? You are a farm girl at heart!
