Dear Journal,
I worked myself into exhaustion yesterday in my yard. I had a burn pile and burned lots of the brush we had cut down. Hubby had to work so my daughter was nice enough to come out and help me. She pushed the wheelbarrow for me after she got out there, as I was just too tired. This is my therapy (working in the yard). It works out all the frustrations of life.
My daughter's boyfriend dropped by when he got off of work. Hubby also came in from work. We were all sitting around the fire. My daughter had some questions about the bible. Hubby was telling her his take on it. It was a nice evening after a long hard day.
Everybody went in before me, I reluctantly left the fire after it had burned down to glowing orange coals. I find it so mesmerizing. I sent daughter and her boyfriend to pick up pizza for us because I was way too tired to cook. I watched a little bit of the tube, visited a few journals and went to bed. Unfortunately, I was sooooooooooo tired, I could not sleep and I had to take a half of a sleeping pill and some pain medication at about 3:30 this morning. I finally fell asleep and slept until about 1:30 today! How is that for exhausted??????????
Now, I am on my way to Wal-Mart to pick up a few needed items. I need to come back and work on taxes, but it is such a nice day, I hear the yard calling me........................
Happy Sunday!~

I love working outside too, all the time, but especially when stressed. And I do love sitting around a fire. But any chance I get too, I roast marshmellows on a stick.

Susan you must have been exhausted after working in the yard ~ glad your daughter helped you with the barrow ~ glad you all shared a good evening together ~ Ally x
Here in the Midwest, we are just beginning to see the wet greyish grass. There is still alot of snow left. Working in the yard sounds like it would be a pleasure. The fire sounds wonderful too. :)
