Beyond Awesome!

Today has been great and Tony, Aaron and I accomplished much today outside and my body is paying for it now.

This morning after Tony and I did our morning chores outside, Aaron arrived to help us clean up and burn old brush, in our old horse corral, up near the front entrance gate. And it was really hard work stacking up cut wood, that Aaron cut with his chainsaw, then dragging large branches and picking up smaller branches from the ground, to the two fire pits so they could be burned.

With the exception of taking a thirty-minute lunch break, we burned and hauled brush for eight hours and my arms, legs and back are killing me, which means that I am somewhat out of shape. But it has been well worth it today, because we have nearly cleaned up half of the huge corral, for Maya and it is starting to look like a beautifully manicured park! And the bottom line is—Maya is going to love it and I got a great workout today.

Tonight, even though Tony and I smell of cedar, which I don't think is a bad thing, because I love the smell of cedar—we plan to do it again tomorrow—if I can get out of bed in the morning.

But the really great news for today is my poster, of the picture that I took of Maya grazing, that Carol painted years ago, arrived and it is absolutely awesome! In fact, it is beyond awesome and I can't wait to get it framed, so I can proudly hang it in our big room and smile every time that I see it.

And that is about it for tonight. I hope that everyone has had a great St. Patrick's Day and that I can get out of bed in the morning! Wish me luck.

Y'all have a great evening!
