Things snowball sometimes….

Well…as I was sitting here taking it easy this afternoon, just out of habit I checked the weather for the rest of the week, thinking that I had at least one more day to get the yard work done…it needed feeding for the fall and I was planning on doing it tomorrow…but, the weather forecast had changed to scattered storms that could be severe over the next 4 days…so I ran and got the spreader out and filled it with food and got the lawn fed…but then, I noticed that it had gotten pretty long and with not being able to mow it until Friday, it was going to be too tall so I got the mower out and mowed it,too…as I was doing that, I noticed that some animal has been digging up the grass on the terrace out front and leaving big bare spots…so I got the grass seed and topsoil out and seeded and filled all those spots so they will grow in the rain…see what I mean about snowballing? All I wanted to do was feed the lawn and do a little bit of work that would take about 20 minutes and it snowballed into over two hours of sweating and getting dirty…and it’s almost 7 so I need to make some ice and get ready for taking some time off…I guess I did burn enough calories today even with only one bike ride…
