Suffering from slight exhaustion.

I overworked myself this weekend. Saturday I spent the entire day outside working. I started at 9:30 AM planting until my dad arrived around 10:30. We installed a new paver walkway in front of our house. The old walkway was useless and was not properly installed. We wrapped up the project around 4 PM and I continued working on the final touches until about 7:30 PM. Needless to say it was a VERY LONG day!

Yesterday, my son, daughter and myself spent 3 hours pulling gralic mustard weeds at a local nature center. I still cannot get the smell out of my nose. BLAH! I am happy to report that none of us got posion ivy. I was a little rashy last night and I was worried that I may have gotten into some. But I woke up with nothing this morning. Praise God!!!

After all of that weekend activity, I am left feeling like I have not slept. I added it all up and I raked in about 27 activity points in two days. I don't know if I can say it was worth it. I am so exhausted right now that I totally understand why people get hospitalized for exhaustion. It is a horrible feeling and I feel like I could sleep for days. But if I don't do it, then it will never get done. I was told this morning that it is "my fun." I don't know if I would call it "fun" but I take pride in myself and my house. If I don't put forth the effort and up keep then it will cost more in repairs later on.

I hope you all had a great weekend. Tomorrow is weigh-in day for me. I hope to have a good number to report!
