This weekend was full of the spring frenzy that accompanies warm weather. Though it rained on and off on Sunday, Saturday was a productive day. We managed an early morning out to breakfast and afterwards Andrew worked all day on replacing the garden fence that had been chewed through many times over by some hungry neighborhood rabbits over the past year. He replaced it with a stronger metal fencing this time that will surely hold up but did a number on him; he is all scratched up, poor guy! I joined in with some light yard work but was in tears (frustration, not pain) by the afternoon at how little I could do and how much I\u00a0<em>wanted and felt pulled\u00a0<\/em>to do. All the heavy pulling, lifting, heaving, dragging, etc. is still too much, but I managed to rake a lot of leaves out of the garden beds and shovel a bit of compost. Not much, but soon I will be there, doing the heavy lifting again. It&#8217;s infuriating, seriously! I miss being physical.<\/p>\n<p>The good news? I am back to fightin&#8217; weight thanks to that ice cream and all the good food our friends and neighbors have dropped off over the past month&#8230; Kim alone stocked us full of baked goods during that entire period!\u00a0<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3772\/13831858234_f77b43c0cd_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0016\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0019\" href=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3786\/13831534953_09bbcdf208.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3786\/13831534953_09bbcdf208_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0019\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0041\" href=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3753\/13831523255_57854a41e7.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3753\/13831523255_57854a41e7_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0041\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0045\" href=\"http:\/\/farm6.static.flickr.com\/5004\/13831874214_64e7571f13.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5004\/13831874214_64e7571f13_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0045\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0055\" href=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2917\/13831528685_aafb82f55d.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2917\/13831528685_aafb82f55d_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0055\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0062\" href=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3819\/13831882734_92198c2f62.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3819\/13831882734_92198c2f62_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0062\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0085\" href=\"http:\/\/farm8.static.flickr.com\/7140\/13831574873_e0eb521936.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7140\/13831574873_e0eb521936_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0085\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0090\" href=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2921\/13831576993_95ed9a2519.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2921\/13831576993_95ed9a2519_b.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0090\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Milo is proving to be quite the helper.
