    Is that what I was smelling that was making me sooooooo hungry.

    I bet they were great. I gotta try to find some of this Namaste stuff. Sounds incredible.

    Alright, I've moved 3 rose plants, uncountable tulips, hyacinths and I have no idea what the other bulbs were, a number of rocks, but not all of them yet, took out the flower pots, fed the roses with steer manure, did some weeding....and the whole time thought about how different I would like the whole front yard to be, and good gravy that's going to be a lot of work and a lot of $$$.

    And there I was not riding my bike thinking I'd get more rest! haha

    I am tired, and my belly hurts, but hopefully I haven't actually caused any lasting issues....After a shower and a nice sleep tonight, I'm hoping tomorrow I feel just fine. Wish me luck!

    Hugs & Butterflies,

    Butterflies

    Hey LBTC. I was thinking of you today while I was running. Millions of little orange and black butterfies on the trail. It almost made me afraid to step forward because I didn't want to squish any of them. But the happily weaved and bobbed out of my way and settled back onto the little puddles they were drinking from after I went through.

    Is your belly sore from your ride yesterday, from all the work in the yard or from your ride today?

    Take care of yourself. I'm glad you're feeling better but take it slowly.

    I need to find a photo for you from China. It's a picture of some really cool outdoor furniture that I think you'll get a kick out of. I'll post it when I can figure out how to resize etc.

    Hey LB - good job on the ride yesterday. I spent the afternoon in the garden too. Weeded like crazy, cleaned out the flower beds and got a heck of a sun burn on my arms and shoulders. Just another beautiful day on paradise...

    Wahine, I think the ride yesterday started it, and the digging in the yard probably made it a bit worse. Biggest difference is that during the yard work there were no twinges or warning signs, just after long enough bent over I would just feel uncomfortable, so I'd give it a rest, go do something else and get back to it....lots of rest breaks but at least two neighbours commented on how much yard work I was getting done!! After all that, it's not a lot more sore than after a day of work, so I'm counting my blessings and hoping I haven't damaged my energy too....

    KG - I actually remembered to sunscreen my nose....! I hate that little pink nose I get all summer every summer! And now, the moment of truth, about to jump in the shower and see where the tan lines are!
