My arms are going to fall off...
Mar. 23rd, 2007 04:40 pmPower tools, YAY! I wielded the weedwhacker today, scalped the clumps of grass on the edge of the ditch and hit a fairly decent-sized area that hadn't gotten mown last year... The weedwhacker is fairly small, one of the smallest ones you can get that is still gas-powered, but oy, the vibration! My hands are still quivering, which makes typing quite an adventure.
Still, I'm glad I got it done since we're supposed to get pretty heavy rain over the next few days. Here in WV, the seasons are winter, mud, and summer and fall, with spring only showing up after a few dry days and disappearing again almost immediately with the next cloudburst.
It's been lovely and warm here all week, though, in the sixties and even tapping the seventies when the sun comes out, which means welcome relief from the high gas bills from running the furnace, always a good thing.
In other news, the refrigerator has arrived at Lowes in Buckhannon, so hopefully in a little while Keith will return from his errands and we'll be taking the trip to fetch it. Refrigerator! YAY! Been a long time in coming, thank you SO much, Pam F.
I can't wait to be able to have salads and stuff.... :)
