Rake the leaves

The leaves had crept back onto my porch and driveway (though not as many), so tonight I bagged a couple bags of leaves. I’m glad I did because I noticed another package from UPS on my porch that must have come after 7:00 p.m. I think I’m only waiting on two more packages to arrive and then my Christmas shopping will be done!

I stretched my hamstring so bad that I’ve been limping for two days. I’ll probably go the mulching route because people are making me feel guilty for bagging the leaves instead of returning them back to the earth.

I didn’t even get it half done, and I filled 13 bags (pictured). I’ll do before and after shots of the front in the comments.

Putting the leaves in the bag isn’t bad. Raking sucks. Now I’m going outside again …

but no one told me about raking leaves. I think I’ll like the raking, but putting the leaves in the bag sounds like a miserable job. It has to be done, so here I go …

But at my sister’s. We raked them and i think they are going to mow over them. Their dog kept jumping in the pile and buring his toys and digging them out…it was funny. and he loved the leaf blower. i think it reminded him of being in teh car, and having his ears flap in the wind.

Just did that this afternoon. Then I jumped in them. Then I had to rake them up again.
