Today was exhausting. We spent most of the day outside taking care of tasks around the house that had been neglected for far too long. Pulling weeds that had taken up residence in our flower beds, cleaning out cobwebs and dirt from the garage, and trimming back trees and bushes that were so overgrown it was hard to see what the shape was supposed to be. Now that Mackenzie has gone to bed, Ben and I are just sitting here: achy + sore + tired.
