Mowing/Yard (Weed & Mow) 10:00 [0]
So, it was a very fine day to be outside, and I even got a somewhat early start (9ish)...
Dug up an area and came across a nest of three Eastern Red-backed salamanders. Pretty cool.
The good feelings took a bit of a turn after that when I got too close to the burlap covering the grass seed next to my beautiful new garden edging...
I followed up this setback by slipping off the last two steps coming off of the back deck after retrieving some scissors to fix my mess. Turned by right ankle pretty good, and though I didn't hear a pop, it hurt worse than some of my more severe sprains. Lay there about five minutes sobbing, first from pain, then from feeling sorry for myself, then picked myself up and went inside to regroup. Fortified with a banana with peanut butter and an ankle brace, I went back out and finished what I had started.
