Just couldn’t do it…

Well…you know, I was going to take the day off and just try to heal my self abused body for a day…it sure needs it but I just couldn’t do it… after getting to 10 am with only doing some work downstairs, I kept looking out at the lawn and the weird growth that had sprouted after the rain so I just had to cut it for the first time to even it out…and that lead to walking around and picking up sticks and part of the tar overlay on the cement driveway that I had shoveled up over the winter…and I am trying to get the 12 coats of paint off the copper downspout with some paint stripper that I put on and am just going to leave it on for a week and see how it works…I could buy new ones for about 60 bucks each and that may be a possibility if they are in too poor of shape when the strip is done…they look like they have been repaired a few times so replacing them may be easier….I did skip the bike ride today with the wind blowing over 20 and a high of 42 degrees…and the soreness, did I mention that? Everything still frickin hurts and it hasn’t been this bad in quite a while…I do feel better about how the front of the house looks but it still needs more work but it doesn’t seem so overwhelming….I can’t wait til I can get the outside projects started but it’s too big of a pain int he ass to try to get any supplies right now with lines waiting to get in and stores limiting everything…I guess I can prep and get ready for when things open up again…
