In the last 4 months we've torn out dozens of dead/half dead trees & bushes, & added hundreds of sq.feet of gardens.
Today I finished planting the last big plants, all together we added: 14 trees, 3 hydrangea, 3 peony, 2 lilacs, 2 red twig dogwood, 2 wild/ mountain roses, so many flowers & veggies

I started working with a weight lifting coach a couple times a week, and my leggies and biceps are SO strong and have major endurance. 💪🏼
My triceps and traps are weak little babies that would hardly survive in a fully stocked Costco by themselves.

Wednesday caught a live mouse outside tonight, I didn't realize what was in her mouth & told her to drop it when she came back inside, I assumed it was a sock. Gad a) mouse was already damaged/unable to scamper, b) she dropped it on a hard floor, & c) I was still wearing my shoes.
Boom squish. 🤢

Whelp, I'm the worst. The FedEx delivery guy just showed up, but in a Penske truck for some reason. And my pup, Wednesday, started barking her head off SO LOUDLY, right next to me. And I screamed and then yelled at her. SHE SCARED ME SO MUCH I LITERALLY DROPPED MY DRINK. Just like in the cartoons.
