Project 365 - Day 73

While my dear friend Carrie was taking a nap I went outside to do a little work in my garden. Not your typical garden tools I realize, but we New Englanders are serious about our gardening. After the roots were cut, the neighbor graciously came over with his pick-up and pulled the stump right out, saving my wittle arms for any further hard labor. Although I must say there is nothing more liberating than swinging an axe with authority. Makes you feel like you have muscles. I almost felt like Robert Conrad for a split second. Almost.
Carrie is leaving in the morning and we had an awesome weekend….well I had an awesome weekend, and you’ll have to confer with her for her side of the story. Honestly, I am very sad to see her leave. She is hilarious, down to earth, gracious as all get out and total fun to be with and I can’t wait for her to come back.
I will try to post the photos of our weekend over the next couple of days. There is a lot of editing involved, which takes a great deal of time, but I have not forgotten that you have been promised some photos.

I am humbled and amazed by you Hallie. You go girl on getting out of your box and being blessed (and a blessing).
Glad that you had such a wonderful visit with Carrie…yup, our God is good!

I have an old, probably 14 or so years, picture of me weilding an axe. Except I couldn’t lift it over my head (safely), so I have it resting against the stump I was supposedly axing. So all I can say is, “You go!”
