magicbeans. nothing if not awkward.

slept until close to noon. was still in some pain when i got up, but it was not excruciating, as it had been last night. took things easy for a few hours.

we were supposed to be spending today and tomorrow cleaning up parts of the yard as a birthday present for mom. getting rid of junk and weeds and overgrown bushes. building new steps at the base of the front lawn. aaron spent the whole day working. sam, who i think was blowing glass until around four, didn't get up until noon either.

i did get outside around mid-afternoon though, and aaron and i got the new steps in the ground. it's looking nicer already.
