Exercising with the lawn mower

Happy Monday guys, hope you all enjoyed the hot sunny weekend...

Today I am SORE!! and its not even the gyms fault this time.

I guess its due to spending 5 hours in the garden on the weekend.

We don't always think about it but incidental exercise can actually go a long way!!!

And this gardening has obviously gone a very long way because I am VERY sore.


Given the weather was so lovely and sunny over the weekend what better time to do the gardens? 
And there was a lot of garden to tend to.

BEFORE:  Our overgrown jungle

Mowing, pulling, lifting, digging, sweeping, pulling weeds (and some are stubborn and need brute strength to be removed) - all fantastic incidental exercise.

AFTER: Looks a little like we have a secret fairy garden

While in the garden I also washed the dishes - well some cups and saucers that double as bird baths in my garden.

Dirty Dishes

I even decided that since the weather was nice, I need a natural tan and since I am feeling more confident I would get out in the garden in some short shorts and a bikini.  Something daring for me and something I would not have done in the past... and better yet, I felt good enough to even share a snapshot.

Still some work to do, but I am happy with the progress

Hopefully all you lovely people are staying healthy and maybe getting in some of your own incidental exercise, what ever it may be.
