Motivation is a great thing. Sometimes you can conjure it up on your own, and sometimes it helps to have an external force. Today our external force was cousin Deb. She made the trip over from Marshalltown this morning and we spent the day using her tools, expertise, and labor to help get the sod up in the backyard for our plant bed.
We were all surprised when we wrapped up around 7pm and had gotten all the sod removed! We got an energy boost at lunch thanks to Hickory Park take out, and I threw in a nap for good measure during the afternoon--hey, I played a 3 set tennis match at 9am, ok? I was also quite tired out from being on wasp-spraying-and-smashing duty for much of the morning...
So a big thanks to Deb for her help and motivational influence!
As a side note, adding "2: Electric Boogaloo" to anything (like a previous blog post title) is a good way to reuse it in a new and interesting way.
