Tree Hugger
I woke up this morning with a raging headache—I haven't had my allergy medication for several days and it's showing. I stopped and got my prescription before I came to work, so I should be feeling better soon.
I'm going to rake leaves tonight, which according to sparkpeople.com, should burn close to 600 for 90 minutes of raking. And it will take me at least that long. I have a giant Poplar tree in my backyard, and it's shedding—everywhere. I usually only rake the yard a couple times because this tree loses so many leaves, I would have to rake every day if I wanted the yard leaf free. The leaves will literally get ankle deep if I don't rake at some point. But I love this tree in the spring and summer. It provides a lot shade for my yard. And it's the tree we hung the swing in for the girls. My neighbor would love it if I cut it down. But I can't. It's perfectly healthy, so I don't intend to cut it down. And it must be old. I can't get my arms around its trunk. It's huge.
Not much else is happening. I lead a fairly boring life. I talk to friends on the phone from time to time, but the only place I go is the gym. I kind of like it this way. But I do need something to occupy my time a little more, so I don't eat everything in sight. I'm thinking of volunteering somewhere—where I don't know.
I hope to have something else to talk about one of these days.
