But that might be because after two evenings of work, I overdid it yesterday morning. I did take the day off, but t-storms were forecast and it kept looking like they’d happen. They finally arrived at 8pm. Not knowing this, I pushed myself hard in the morning, working steadily from 6-10am except for a 15 minute break. I finished three more bed. One of them was horrid–clay-ey soil and tons of roots. It was one of the smaller beds but took the longest to do! The other two were like the ones I’d done before. Eric came out to help at 9, but he twisted his ankle on the stairs and just couldn’t do it. (We are digging up each bed with a pitchfork.) I ached all over all day (and still do) and took an hour nap midday. I had no energy to work in the evening.
