Yesterday was a rest day..............................

Which went something like this...

Slept in until 5:30 AM only to be greeted with the usual mess from one of my residents. After cleaning that up and getting her settled with breakfast I was out in the garden pulling weeds from 6:30 until 7:30. Taking a break from that I spent the next hour dumping and spreading pea stones. Then I moved some retaining wall bricks and did a little digging to fill the area. The remainder of the morning was spent doing laundry, weeding, and resident care.

After making, serving, and cleaning up after lunch, I headed back out for another hour of weeding, then did some prep cooking for the pre-prom festivities, more weeding, served dinner, helped (my) Mister with parts of the platform he is building for our new resident, finished weeding the garden and between 7 and 7:30 PM dug up some plants to take to the plant exchange this morning.

Wonder what I would have been able to accomplish had not been a day of rest?

In order to fit my running in today, I got up at 6 AM to deal with the repeat first part of yesterday morning and then scooted out the door for a quick three miles. I have a "Patty" (two runs on the same day) planned for tomorrow so hopefully I will be a little nicer to my body today than I was yesterday. One can always hope!
