The skunk came back... 5 days ago

but hubby chased it away with a garden hose & then (this morning) cut down the tree that we think has been attracting it. He might be a city boy, but it made me proud to see that he isn’t afraid to chase off pests & use the chain saw.

Working in the yard... 5 days ago

I raked leaves for two hours yesterday & another two today. Sis helped me bag them up & we had a good time joking around. It was maybe the first time since mom died that I’ve seen her at peace. It made me happy. There’s something really satisfying about raking leaves. It’s hard work, but I like that I can SEE where all that effort went. Immediate gratification. lol

It’s been a long time since I felt like working in the yard. I had forgotten how much I love it. I feel so good right now…
