Sad to say, today is the last day of my vacation (big frown). It’s been a great couple weeks with fantastic weather. I got to eat a lot of sweet corn from my garden and I froze a lot to enjoy after the season is over. I have one piece of watermelon left to eat later today. It was wonderful – sweet and juicy and absolutely perfect! I got a little house cleaning done. I spent most of my time every day outside from the time I got up in the morning until it started getting dark. I got a lot of work done in my yard. I have a nice-sized brush pile awaiting pickup to testify to the work I did. I did some painting on my house – a project I started a couple years ago and never finished. I called a few roofers (still waiting for estimates). I did a little cleaning in my garage. I even cleaned out my messy, dirty car. I fixed the 2 flat tires on my bike (they just needed pumping up) and I took a couple short spins on it. I’m puzzled why the bike pedals so hard, though. The slightest of uphill grades leave me exhausted because it’s so hard to pedal. The plan for today is to take a quick trip to my garden to see what needs picking and to spend most of the rest of the day just relaxing and reading in my lawn swing. That’s how I spent many hours on my vacation – reading. I think I read 6 or 7 books on vacation and I did some crossword puzzles and Sudoku puzzles too. A wonderful vacation. I wish I didn’t have to go back to work on Sunday! I can hardly wait for my next vacation, whenever that may be.
