Yard Work.

Well,

I was hoping to post some photos of our before and after yard work... but it'll have to wait. I worked myself so hard that I had a bad case of dehydration this afternoon and ended up laying in bed for 3 hours. I feel better now.

Here's the run down of this eventful Saturday:

8:30 am - Woke up, ate cereal
9:00 am - Went to mom and dads to borrow their truck and yard stuff that we can't afford to buy (shrub trimmer, shovels, etc.)
9:30 am - Got back home and started my yard work
10:00 am - Realized it was HOT and went inside to get a big glass of ice water

Don't worry - I refilled several times throughout the day - I guess just not enough.

11:45 am - Steven and I ran up to Home Depot to get more yard supplies (gloves, mulch, weed killer)
12:30 pm - Got home and ate lunch and then back in the yard we went
2:45 pm - Steven went rock climbing and I cleaned the yard stuff up and hit the showers
3:15 pm - I couldn't stand up without getting dizzy - got in the bed
3:30 pm - Steven rushed home to check on me
4:00 pm - Could not move and somewhere around here I got sick
4:15 pm - Steven had called my mom, my dad and his mom (he freaks out when I get sick)
5:00 pm - Mom called to check on me and woke me up

She wanted to make sure I was okay, I wanted to tell her how amazing the yard looked

5:30 pm - Realized I was STARVING
6:00 pm - Steven made me Mac N Cheese, wathed TV and ate a bazillion oreos

Steven kept coming in the bedroom asking which mac n cheese I liked best, which pot to use, "Are you sure your hungry?" "YES, when am I not hungry?" - We had that discussion a couple of times.

7:00 pm - I got bored and went back outside to do more yard work

Steven was watching my every move. I'm pretty sure he thought I was going to pass out or something - Don't worry, I didn't.

Now I'm on the couch, monitoring my bug bites and reading Harry Potter & the Order of the Pheonix. It's book 5 and I'm determined to get through all of them before the movie comes out in November :)
