I'm so glad this week is almost over!!

Sunday: worked 8:15 until noon making flavored butters
Monday: worked 5:50 am until 1 pm. Landscaping 1:30 until 5:30 pm Pruned shrubs 3.5 hours of this time
Tuesday: worked 5:50 am until 2 pm landscaping 1 1/4 hr, drive to another 1.5 hours at that place. Home at 7 pm More pruning!
Wed: Worked 9 am until 4 pm. Landscaped 1.5 hrs one place. Estimate at the house next door. Home about 6:45 pm. Patched a lawn and pruning
Thurs: worked 5:50 am until 2 pm. Drove 40 minutes to work landscape (yep more pruning-actually removed 7 overgrown shrubs) for 2.5 hours.
Friday: 5 hours of large shrub removal (18-12 yr old arbor vitae). Stopped at greenhouse for plant purchase/rose consutation for another 90 minutes.
Sat: work on order for Stonewall Kitchen products for store and other stuff with owners-hopefully only 3 hours.

Then free rest of day and Sunday!!


That was quite enough don't you think??

Whew! And I thought my week was busy with work M-Fri, and four finals due between Sunday and Thursday. I now feel like I had it easy

Not sure how you found the energy to even make that post!!!
I'm tired just reading it!

I've had a pretty busy week myself, but not so labour intensive. But it sounds like you enjoy what you do, and it must be very gratifying to see the changes taking place before your eyes!

Well I cleaned part of my house today, caught up on several days of Wall Street Journal reading and had 3 loads of wash on the clothesline by 9 am thanks to Bender giving a 5:30 am wake-up call. After an errand I did work in my own yard for a change! Also got in a later afternoon catnap. So a fairly productive day here.

Just to let everyone know I'm not really sore from all this work-my left arm is though from overuse a bit. Hopefully next week will be a bit easier. Only two more weeks (6 days really) of doing the 6 am start at work then I can resume my 10 am start time!
