Mowing, trimming, raking, dumping. A long day and a longer night if I don't use at least some of these remedies. Thankfully, I shouldn't need the poison ivy cream but the rest of it will come in handy
Since I still have snow with more on the way, it's hard for me to imagine mowing but I can empathize with the aches and pains! As we get older, what doesn't hurt, often doesn't work!
It’s just that all the bending and lifting uses muscles that we don’t use in the winter! Those heat patches would be calling my name in a week or two - when I finally get busy in the yard.
My sympathy. Last week we had 2 cubic metres of soil delivered and had to barrow it from the front of the drive to the back garden, boy did I know about it the next day!!
@wyomingsis I think it was in the high seventies today. There was a nice breeze though. Usually my "everything" hurts. Just more so today! ;~} @louannwarren you are so right! Plan ahead. @judithdeacon thanks Judith. I have done that before too and totally feel your pain!
I feel your pain. I get sore very quickly working in the yard. Thankfully, I have a hard girl that does most of the heavy stuff. Hope your soreness goes away soon.
@maggiemae fortunately a good night's sleep helped the most but nice tohave them for back up! @nicolecampbell It was a productive day and the soak sounds like a great remedy too! @ludwigsdiana Thanks Diana. Sometimes just a little time helps and it seemed to in this case @30pics4jackiesdiamond Thanks bunches Jackie! Really no one but I would be able to tell all we accomplished but it looks good to me. @Dawn thanks so much Dawn. I am already feeling better @henrir I appreciate that Henri. Unfortunately I AM the hired girl I think! ;~} @kwind So nice of you Kim thanks a lot. Already feeling better after a good night's sleep
ah, the patch for manufacturer's defect. i always tell people the outside can be patched but inside, the defects are gradually manifesting. ah, old age, wise age, painful age! :-D
