Making the most of a mild mid-winter day

Categories
Lifestyle

The uncharacteristically mild day enjoyed yesterday certainly invited folks to spend time outside. I did. I even donned one my my N95s. Not to protect me around others. The outing remain totally solo. The mask made sense because I opted to go under my deck and clear the leaves that got through. In the past the dirt from the raking and sweeping might induce a round of sneezing. Not this time.

 

When I envisioned this activity (I view it not as a chore but a form of exercise.), I anticipated just clearing under out deck. As I checked the time on my watch, I found sufficient time remained before darkness arrived to do more. I opted to clear any leaves and down branches that remained after the fall cleanup. Filled two large bags.

 

And despite all the activity, can report just Doin’ Fine here.

 

This early mid-winter Spring Cleanup certainly gains me a day for total leisure later this year. 

 

What to do.

 

P.S. Superbowl predictions welcome. And if you still need boxes to enjoy the viewing, click here and if interested reach out to this commentator (example found in pic at upper left).

Hard to believe I’m looking at a few inches of snow right now…

Sounds like a good use of your mask and your time. As for the Super Bowl, I predict that Detroiters who watch will be watching the Rams quarterback - kind of a tearz in your beerz moment.

Glad you had a nice day to do come needed chores. I remember all too well those occasions when nature provided a winter treat. But now I am enjoying that almost every day. Not touching this game with predictions but I am rooting for the Bengals as the underdog.
