The bobcat rolled out these huge rolls of sod and we had to follow behind with metal rakes to pull the rows of sod together snugly, cut off the ends, and then plug in any holes with the end pieces left over. I had actually planned to lift weights after we were done but around noon I scrapped any idea to workout. I was getting enough NEAT to last for a few days!!! Seriously though, I am not sore at all. My muscles all worked hard, but they were up to the task! Thanks, Lou and Alwyn, for a great weight lifting program! And I'm only just finishing Stage 4! Woohoo!!
Wow, what a workout! It's so great to be able to do the things we want to do without killing ourselves or taking two days to recover! I feel the same way--although that story tops my lawn mowing yesterday for sure!
