An Ounce of Productivity

in #yardwork5 days ago (edited)

Tuesday (Wednesday) and we are still out of electricity. Too many lines and transformers are damaged and it looks like restoration of normal services will take a while, they say. I hope not!

Although in DD, power is back already. I should probably go home there soon, lol!

Anyway, I did a bit of work in the neglected spaces in the yard around mid morning when my old folks were resting.


It was not in the day's plan to be honest. I was just feeling cold and my antidote was to stay under the sun for some warmth. But while outside, I started pulling this and that (small weeds) and realized I was enjoying the activity.

You prolly missed gardening (my thought) so I rushed to the store for a pair of gloves, borrowed a small bolo from my Dad's box (can't find any other suitable tool) and was on to the weeds once more, grabbing and chopping off grass and such.


I should have taken a before pic prior the job but it was not on my mind so these were photographed around mid afternoon, when while taking out some trash, I noticed the reflection on the accumulated water.


There had been big dumps of eroded soil during the previous typhoons but we have not been able to clear them out. Now, the yard is a mess, I can barely recognize it, lol!


Hoping to get to it by first quarter next year. Mr P (procrastination) residing in the house?🤔

Not really.

We are just prioritizing😂

Well, at least today (rather yesterday), I got my hands dirty, exercised some muscles, received Vit D (hopefully), broke some sweat, became a bit productive off the screen, and most importantly, I fed (healed) my soul and I'm feeling a lot better!

So it's a Happy hump day😉

I hope the electricity line and transformer in your area will be fixed as soon as possible Ma'am @ifarmgirl . It is not easy not to have electricity in the house especially if there's kids.

It's fantastic to see you being so productive! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.

Hehe. You will never change. Means you never miss any opportunity to click pictures.
By the way, reflection's picture looks good.

I won't deny that. Taking pictures is part of my day😁

The lack of electricity is definitely a problem, but you have made these very special and beautiful pictures for us, we love them.

It sure is and doing things tend to become inconvenient without power.

Thank you for the kind remarks

Hmmm, life with power.. I would just lose my mind haha

Haha I would understand😅

It's so unfortunate about the loss of power, I'm sure it would not take so much time to put back together.

Yes, it's back already :)

So sorry about the loss of power.

It just happened, lol! Thank you and the power has been restored.

It's so difficult Pg brown out. Buti nalibang Ka SA labas sis😬.

Oo din. Parang nagiging mahirap ang mga gawain kung walang kuryente :)

They say that the less technology works in a place, the more people get close to nature. 🤔🧘‍♂️🌴🤓

!HOPE !INDEED !DIY

And that is so true. I observed that more people come out of their houses and bask under the sun when there is a power outage😅

It might be funny if someone meets their neighbor for the first time on the road because of an electrical power outage. 🤔😅

That might be funny but it happens 😅

Maybe the sudden lack of electrical power causes many people to take their break from (too much) work, which would be beneficial to their (physical and mental) health. 🤔🧘‍♂️🤓

I can't even imagine being a whole day without electricity, would be like lost

Oh it's tough. You can't do most things. Although we have power generators, the noise can be unbearable😬

I think those electricity generators should be situated at places where its sound can barely be heard by people around while they operate. 🤔🤯🤓

!PIZZA !INDEED !DIY

That would be the best thing to do. Unfortunately, we have not been able to set up the space for ours.

Even if you managed to put it in a space where its noise wouldn't bother most (if not all) people, its smoke should also be managed. 🤔🤯😅

!HOPE !INDEED !DIY

True that. So it's best to invest on a solar -owered generator.

A solar-powered generator will be dependent on its exposure to sunlight, such as nighttime and rainy daytime won't provide it with energy. 🤔🤯 Even if it has batteries, it won't be enough for continuous usage during the night. 🤔🤓
