Refreshed

Yesterday was absolutely goregeous outside; sunny and warm without the high wind! I spent a good portion of the day outside cleaning the riding mower, pulling down grape vines from the Lilac bushes and wacking away on the brush that has sprung up over the years. I made good progress but discovered that the riding mower is in need of more trouble shooting. Something in the electrical circuit this time. Dad/ Brian will have to look at it and see what he can figure out.
I brought Beatrice home with me so that she could relax and unwind from all her problems for a while because her stress levels are out the roof. She decided that she wanted to help with some of the stuff so she went down below the hill and started wacking away at the Sumac. She worked a long time on it and made good progress too. This morning she is wore out. She admitted to me yesterday that she is not use to doing that much work.

Today is suppose to be another beautiful day and I am going to take full advantage of it! It is suppose to cloud up and start raining again tonight and tomorrow so thee is not much time to lose. I am going to go in and visit with Dad though as I have not seen him since Sunday. I would have visited with him last night but by the time I got finished with my day I was blacker than the ace of spades. That mower gets gross in one season.

I hope you all have a good day!

  2. It's been a glorious day!
    I played tug o' war with grape vines that have been growing for years. A couple of them are wrapped tight around the upper branches of some Lilacs and a tree so I am going to have to take that tree down to clear the lilac. I don't mind parting with the tree as it is in the Lilacs and is a nuisance tree anyway. I raked up the branches off the lawn today and was surprised to see how beautiful it was under all the leaves and brush. I love Spring!
