Week-end Recap

Hubby worked this weekend, so I wasn't able to get a real workout in - instead I was able to steal away 30 minutes at a time and 'workout' around the yard! I'll show you some of my weekend activities.

Flower pot (metal bin really) that needed a face lift, started like this:

and turned into this (flowers to come payweek next week):



Also, I made the veggie garden look like this (I removed the huge weeds, mixed in compost, fertilizer and lime, and shaped the beds - also planted lettuce, carrots, spinach and beets):




here's another pic of my helper Abby : )


Also weeded and mulched the strawberries and cared for the transplants in the greenhouse:

And finally I worked back around to the front of the house to work on edging and mulching the shrubs:



and weeded my front perennial bed (everything looks small cause the bed is only in its second full year):


Phew, just writing this makes my back sore! And, on top of that I did upteen loads of laundry, vacummed, took dogs to parks, kids to parks, playdates, gymnastics, and fed everyone! I think I deserve a drink - mmmmm, how about a nice Rickards Red?? :)

So, while I didn't workout, I was very active. My back is sore, but no more or less sore than it was this week. I still got 5 workouts in for the week, and I'm set for another 5 this week. I also have MASSAGE on Tuesday am - I'm not sure where to have to work to make the most of the one hour. I suspect she will tell me she wants to see me again next week to continue - left ham/glute, SI joint, right shoulder/neck, complete stiff back.....aaaghhh, Tuesday am can't come soon enought.

They say people are like the dog breed they chose. I have Border Collies therefore this makes me a Border Collie and I suppose that's right. Echo once ran for her ball so long she puked, looked at it, picked up her ball was ready to run some more! I suppose I'm like this, I can't sit down unless I'm completely wrecked. Nothing halfway! 

Ok, that beer is calling my name. I promise to blog more regularily.....promise!

Nite: )
