I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK!

Wow what a day! 

I advertised the cut down trees and branches on freecycle and got a great response so I had to cut up and drag logs through to the front garden so the man with a chain saw could cut them smaller, loaded his van up then another person wanted smaller logs this afternoon so more sawing as well as lopping down another 25 foot long branch! More sawing and sorting and loading up - phew I have had a full day at this today from 7.30am.  Be gad to get back to the gym to have a rest actually :-)

I feel good about the amount of exercise and even my OH is cooking dinner tonight :-( I will then be having a nice soak in the bath and should hope that by tomorrow morning I would have lost at least half a stone :-) Have a nice weekend everyone :-) John

A brilliant idea - v impressive  you are a freecycle  hero 🎷🎷🎷.  I hope you are not too achy tomorrow.  I spent the day gardening as well. Always a joy but I simply cannot believe how much more I can get done than this time last year.

Hi John,

Great that you got lots of interest in your 'freecycle' campaign.  Sounds like a lot of sawing and lopping down of branches!  

Hope you enjoy your dinner tonight, prepared by your OH - lovely!  Enjoy that nice soak int he bath - I bet you will have lost quite a bit of weight, all being well, this week.

Have a lovely weekend.

Lowcal :-)
