Whoa- yard work

So, this weekend turned out to be a GORGEOUS fall weather. Temp's in the high 50's and clear blue skies. We were crazy busy yesterday, but today- not so much. So I decided to work the afternoon away (2 hours) on putting flowers beds to bed for the winter.

Let me tell you! The following activities will make you hurt in area's you forgot had muscles

Digging up plants.
Replanting the same plants.
Finding missing bulbs.
Planting new bulbs.
Shoveling away grass roots.
Mixing concrete.
Lifting and placing cement bricks.
Pulling out a dead tree (poor Clint.)
Heaving bags of new dirt around.
Covering everything up.

It took 2 hours to do 2 small beds. I'll save the monster bed (goes along the front left side of the house & fence line) for Tuesday after school. I'd do it tomorrow- but I have meetings most of the afternoon.

Someone told me once that gardening wasn't much of exercise, but they are FOOLS!! I'm gonna hurt tomorrow, I just know it!
