Soreness

So I have been helping an elderly women with Parkinson's disease do some gardening. Now don't act surprised, I do this kind of thing all the time ;). Anyway, today I literally pulled weeds for 5 hours straight. We're not talking little weeds here kids, we are talking about huge weeds that have to be dug around before the roots release their angry grip from the earth. I am now sore in multiple areas on my body. Lower back, butt, hamstrings, fingertips, middle back, upper back. UUUGH! I have sworn off gardening for a really long time. Good thing I don't have my own yard to do it anyway!

how kind are you?! much more kind than i am. okay- so i just left a reply to you on my blog,but it got too long-so im switching it up here. so we live in orem- where are you guys? no- i dont think that carson was mean- but if he was he had good reason because correct me if Im wrong..but i swear he was in my 3rd grade class with Mrs Hoffman and i sat at a table with him and Bailey Beckstead (or maybe it was scott) and when carson came to sit down we pushed his chair out from under him, and we had to stay in from recess cuz we got busted. if i havent apologized before this- i do so now. dont ASK me how i remember that. but i do, and i'd like to repent and have a clean slate if you dont mind. :)

"My fingers hurt."
"Oh, well, now your back's gonna hurt, 'cause you just pulled landscaping duty. Anybody else's fingers hurt? I didn't think so. "
