Breaking them down in to tiny steps makes all the difference.Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-20576337810144800102009-11-24T21:11:20.737-07:002009-11-24T21:11:20.737-07:00Money Funk, I often think about those people who p...Money Funk, I often think about those people who pay for gym memberships while I am digging holes. They could pay me and I'd let them dig holes for me. :)Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-73983266968151269462009-11-24T07:06:20.624-07:002009-11-24T07:06:20.624-07:00When my husband got sick with Cancer two months ag...When my husband got sick with Cancer two months ago there was still ALOt of work to be done on our new (fixer upper)house with alot of it being manual labor.<br />For awhile with the surgery and Chemo he just can't do anything heavy. I just take it one day at a time and always do something everyday no matter how little. Even if you dig down 1 inch everyday eventually it will be done. Thats the mind set I have been useing and I have finished a project that I never thought I could do. It took alot longer than what my husband could have done, but it is done, I am exhausted but it feels very rewarding.dottienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-90909396591812217122009-11-23T22:47:29.187-07:002009-11-23T22:47:29.187-07:00That's a heck of a lot of manual labor, but it...That's a heck of a lot of manual labor, but it will really work up those biceps! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-84465817278975794692009-11-22T21:39:54.154-07:002009-11-22T21:39:54.154-07:00No rain which is bad because my tanks are pretty l...No rain which is bad because my tanks are pretty low. I do still have back-up tanks though.<br /><br />The neighbor said he looked in to renting one and it was expensive. I don't think I could wrestle one of those. If I had lots of extra water I could hook up my pressure washer. The ground really does magically soften with water. Erosion is great when it's in the right places. I am diging above my septic leach line too. Don't know how far down they are but haven't hit anything yet.Daizyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08075279944974601962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6787157690355329112.post-36374718308782966702009-11-22T21:34:15.401-07:002009-11-22T21:34:15.401-07:00Any rain in the forecast?
