Ok say it with me.....Aaaaaaaahhhhh, rest day ;)
Yup, today was a rest day for me. I really needed it. Yesterday when I went walking I could just feel the tiredness in my legs once I started off. But, I didn't want to take a rest day only because like I mentioned the other day, I had taken a day off from walking last week because of my knee. Anyway, looks like I needed it after all.
So today was rather busy for me! Lisa did her run this morning. I spent it outside looking after my cat Sebastian while he ran around (which didn't last long because he got into trouble right away) and I also cut lots of weeds in my front yard. I mentioned that I wanted to clear my yard of weeds and I'm on that mission now. I cut lots of'em and now my entire front yard is done. When Lisa came back, we had a small breakfast of boiled eggs and corned beef hash. Lots of water! After, we headed up town to Salmons and I bought some stuff to get my Air Conditioner running. I had me a cheat treat today! Before going to Salmons (which is a home hardware and appliance store) we stopped by our church and helped my grandma out with some cleaning. After that, Salmons, then I was craving something sweet. I had one of those low energy days and I really really wanted something sweet. So, as a treat, Lees and I went to Dairy Queen and I got a Cherry Dipped ice cream cone. Omgosh it was so good! I hadn't had ice cream in so long. I felt bad after eating it, but I'm not going to torcher myself. I'll just do a good 5 miles tomorrow and some yoga if I can sneak that in there. Anyway, after that we went home and right away I pulled out my tools and started working on my A/C. It's pretty hot out there. Oh yeah, one crazy thing that happened when we got home. I was over looking at the kitties and one of them was really scratching her ear. She was meowing constantly and her ear looked like it was really bothering her. I picked her up and looked, but I didn't see anything. I got Lisa and told her to check it out while I finished gathering my tools. After, she came back and told me to help her because the kitten had one of those foxtail weeds deep in her ear and she needed to use a tweezers to get it out. So, I held the kitten and Lisa gently reached down and pulled the weed out. Oh Man, that thing was about an inch long, deep inside her ear. I couldn't believe it! So, I had Lisa cut down all those foxtail weeds down by the shed where the kittens are. That was intense!
Anyway, I got up on the roof and cleaned out the A/C, changed my hose, put some new fixtures on there and got my A/C up and running for the summer. It's running great! I had to put some effort though and must've climbed up and down that ladder 5 times. After I got it running, Lisa pulled some weeds behind the place. I swear those weeds are popping up all over. I put everything away, then I cleaned out my propane grill. I gotta get some parts for it tomorrow and try and get it goin so we can cook some fish outside. So, once I got all that done, I did some inside work and put on a new toilet seat in the back bathroom because Sebastian tore the other one up to pieces. Now, it looks good. The rest of the evening was spent watchin a movie and eating some salad and soup. It was a very busy but fulfilling day! Lookin forward to tomorrow. Back to exercising ;)
Goodnight!
