rolling amidst lengths of consciousness
Apparently I was bitten by the Cleaning Bug(tm) this last weekend.
Saturday I did the following:
-dishes
-laundry
-vacuumed & mopped all floors
-raked & bagged all leaves from the backyard
I have no idea what got into me. Maybe it was all the sleep I indulged in the previous night. The first three things are pretty par for the course, actually, but I think having such wonderful weather on Saturday really motivated me to do some yardwork. I really love it when you can work outside and still not crack a real sweat, even when it was a sunny day. Sure, I felt it on Sunday and today. Oh god do I feel it. It hurts to SIT DOWN, damn, my ass. My biceps are sore too. That's what you get for carrying around seven ~50lb bags of brush from the backyard to the front driveway. By the last bag my arms were numb, but I didn't mind. It felt good to be outside, doing something, getting my feet into the dirt (really, I was only wearing flip-flops) and just focusing all my energy into one task. It had a therapeutic effect, and I really wish I could experience it more often.
I also managed to not get blisters this time. :)
