I think I’ve de-stressed enough since the weekend. It was truly horrid with work, but we managed to get everything under control and things seem to be working (dare I say…) better than it has been in a good while.

I’ve been outside working a lot, in addition to watching things work-related. I did get a push reel mower, had to actually return two before I found one that wasn’t broken… rather a bad sign.

The 16″ version had plastic height adjustments along with a plastic roller. I wasn’t too pleased with that, but then again that was the size I wanted. Well, I switched over to the 20″ version, it weighs 13 more pounds, but it seems to work nicely. It doesn’t cut dandelions if they’re taller than the bar in the front, but that just means I need to work to eliminate them.

Oh, I actually did mow the entire front lawn with the reel mower. It didn’t really take any more time than doing it on the tractor, at least not significantly more time. I was utterly exhausted, but it was such an amazing, rather full body, work out.

The fish are doing well, the garden is growing nicely, but need to weed and mulch very badly. We finally managed to get rid of our old cars, this company came and bought them for scrap metal. $20 per car isn’t too bad, hah… better than having to pay someone to take them away!
