My feet is so very painful. The exercises I did seemed to have made it worst since this morning. But that pain that could make me cry after a week of it constant, that pain put aside, the day had turned out to be lovely. We both gardened and I think we should hire our handy man guy with a truck to dump all the trimming at the city spot for such things...The backyard is covered in branches, dead, from the tree BJG cut back extensively. It would not all fit in our compost bin...

* I have discovered an Enkianthus campanulatus I planted about 8 years ago...ah ah ah...I had forgotten about it. Turns out it is doing very very well but I extensively pruned the slamonberry shrub that was hiding it from the sun this year.
