I overdone it in Experiences To Learn From

Tired of listening to the nagging I decided to just bite the bullet and mow the lawn. I was in the middle of walking out the door when she called and said - everyone on our street is mowing. 

I was 3 steps from the mower. 

I did the lawn, then did some landscaping and edging. I was soaking wet with sweat even though it's only 92 degrees. I thought I may be finished.. oh - I picked up some lawn treatment could you go ahead and put that in the lawn? Another hour outside.... then, oh yeah - I picked up some weed killer could you take care of the drive? 

I finish that and finally make it to the shower. Walk back into the kitchen hoping just to sit and take in a baseball game - I picked up some ribs, can you grill them? Oh and some potatoes - please make your potato salad... Then, slaw.. it felt like - beat Bobby Flay! 

I am back outside for 6 more hours with these ribs and all the other stuff.. 

I was too tired to even eat - but the house and all the extra folks thinks I'm a doll.. 

I'm sitting here contemplating another shower.. I'm drained... I feel weird on the inside.. and the neighborhood is all gathered out there with fireworks.. bah humbug.. 🤣 

I've heard all day how we are in the land of the free... I need emancipated!
