And I have been a slugabed this beautiful morning. Slept until after 12:00, which I haven't done in years.
It was not wasted time though. I feel rested for once. Gonna hit the yeard and do the housework later.
While digging out the shrubs yesterday, the ground is soft and too wet to work, but not soggy like I thought it would be. I'm getting a clearer and clearer idea of just how much water all these trees do suck up.
Somewhere way up thread Bobert had commented on how much cooler this house will be from all the shade. I'm finding that to be remarkably true, and loving it. I also love the tranquil quality of light of all the shade and the green grass, and the contrast of light and shadow on the lawn.
