Didn't want to wake up this morning...

I don't think I have EVER been as sore as I am this morning. I spent yesterday wrestling with shovels, dirt, and a very large rototiller. I also put 1000 pounds of manure in my new garden. Yes, 1000 pounds. I actually had to deal with that several times, as there wasn't anyone to help me load it and then I had to get it off the truck into the garden. (Mom - it felt like that day we lifted the ton of tile.) However, I've got a good start on the garden. I need to take at least two more passes with the tiller and then I think I'll be ready to plant. Although it was back breaking, I feel like I've really accomplished something. It's a nice feeling!

BTW - my friend Patrick let me borrow his VERY BIG diesel truck to move stuff around yesterday. It was a lot of fun driving around town in that. I looked at all the tiny little regular pickups and laughed at their tinyness! :-) :-)
