(Again my internet connection is way too slow to upload a photo.)
Wednesday 3/11. Feeling so much better this morning, I rushed out to meet the day and got tripped up by my own exuberance. I have to slow down until I really am better.
There is another stump by the two from the trees that JB just took down and I can picture a nice little garden spot there with flowers in the stumps, the bird bath and a bench. An inexpensive project for my summer.
JB cut four more rounds from the larger tree (a 27" diameter), and moved them to the splitter. Finally a little before 2:00 pm I felt better and went out to help. We got some of the large, bare branches moved to where we plan to build the new wood cradle. I broke smaller ones into kindling.
We watched the last episode of True Blood, season five, and hit the sack early.
Thursday 3/12. I left for Down There at about 9:00 am with loads of laundry to do. Just took things slowly and did much better today. Picked up a few groceries. Stopped in to visit with Larry and Elsie. Spent some time at the Salvation Army store and found a couple books, a queen-size sheet to use as a couch or bed cover, and a longs-sleeved T-shirt. Went to my 2:30 pm doctor's appointment for a follow-up to Tuesday's visit to the clinic. I am definitely on the mend. Also got a blood test for celiac's disease, per JB's request.
It was 4:40 pm by the time I arrived back home. Our high Up Here was 57, but it was 68 Down There. I am pretty sure we are going to pay for this incredible weather in another couple weeks as March roars out of here.
We started watching season three of Homeland which I have heard is supposed to be kind of slow.
Friday 3/13. Another Friday the 13th! It is 40 and overcast this morning with rain due tomorrow. Still so much clean up to do and rounds to cut with the trees.
