Shallow Thoughts
I cashed in some credit card reward points for a Home Depot gift certificate and decided to spend it on a project to add a stepping stone path to my lawn and fix all the ugly spots around my yard. The required loading several hundred pounds of stone, sand, and soil into the trunk of my car and then unloading them into the yard:
I'll also be installing a rain barrel next to my downspout, so I laid out a brick foundation for that as well:
There's still quite a bit of digging and leveling to be done, but it's good to know that my recent kettlebell training provided enough functional strength to do this kind of work without hurting myself. I'm looking forward to enjoying the finished product. And greening up that lawn a bit!
Deep Thoughts
My older daughter has fully recovered from her tonsillectomy and is now sleeping well through the night.
My younger daughter was diagnosed with an even more severe sleep apnea and will be getting her tonsils removed this Friday. The subsequent 2 weeks will likely be quite miserable as she recovers, but I believe the short term pain will be well worth the long term gain to her sleep quality.
My own sleep apnea is more mild, but enough that I'll be trying out an oral appliance. And I went ahead and stopped drinking alcohol completely because I need to improve the quality of my sleep whenever/wherever/however I can.
As I said in the VItamin S post, don't underestimate the importance of good sleep, and be willing to put effort into improving your sleep. The benefits are real!

STOPOh, that beautiful , I would love to walk around and give your girls little dog love to improve even more.
And if you give me a little bit of what they eat, yummy, I do not get angry. Dog kisses. 👅🐕
Well, I work so beautiful, I'm also trying hard to do some remodeling, even if I'm very tired. You are right, never underestimate the power to sleep well is essential otherwise you can fall into a shock of stress that has already happened. I wish the best for your girls. Blessings
It is very nice, and that barbecue looks delicious. Your girls will be fine years ago I underwent the same surgery because I suffered from infection and I was constantly sick because of that, it was annoying the first 5 days, but with sopitas/ soup and gelatin I got better even faster. The best for all. 💫💫🌻
