Now I do a lot of thing in a year that push me physically. I put in 3 to 5 cord of wood each year. I cut full length logs into stove size pieces. It takes weeks to get it all done.
I cut, Split, throw in the basement and stack it all. It is a ton of work and very tiring .
But that wasn’t it.
I hike mountain all summer long that push my body and my mind as I try to make it to the top.
Nope that's not it either!
I do a lot of spring yard work this time of year to get things ready for summer.
You see I never do what I should in the fall so come spring I have a lot of cleaning, raking, picking up and cutting back of plants and shrubs.
Just a major amount of work to do in order to make sure the place looks good for summer.
But again , nope that’s not what is making me tired.
What does have me on the brink of falling asleep as I sit here at 5:30 on a Saturday night is the fact that I just spent 24 hours, along with Lisa, taking care of our first Grandchild Katherine Alice.
She is 3 months shy of 2 years old .
We had the pleasure of having her for the first overnight last night.
We had a great time with her!
We played, we laughed , we pouted when we got into things we shouldn’t have.
We worked so hard to get to sleep at 11:00 last night since only 2 of the three of us thought sleep was important !
We ate bacon and eggs for breakfast, and we played all day .
We found everything we shouldn’t as a 2-year-old and all-day long Gramma and Grandpa ran around making sure we didn’t get into something we shouldn’t.
Its hard to baby proof a house for a 2-year-old !
We read books, we rode the whale rocker, and we ate lots of yummy food. Oh and yes we ran around the inside of the house ! Miles and miles traveled in such a small area inside the house !
Honestly, it was one of the best 24 hours I have spent in a long time. I loved every minute of it, and I can’t wait to do it again !
AND I AM EXHAUSTED !
Dang keeping up with a 2-year-old is hard work !!
I can’t wait to do it again !!
Good night everyone !
