Yesterday I worked hard and finished removing the grass layer of the area I wanted to clear. It is pretty big and I am very happy with it! I never want to do it again though...
Today I will make a start with tidying up the edges.Spoiler

Hmm, I couldn't find it on the app so I checked my laptop and I don't see it. The last message I received was from 2021. [/i]
You've already updated us...again, I was just checking to see how you were doing. I'm glad all is well and that you're back with us!

Edges are finished! It took around 1,5 hours without breaks which wasn't too bad. I am not going to do anything else the rest of the day though, pfew. It's not perfect, but good enough. I will tidy up a bit along the fence with my neighbour some other time.Spoiler

Glad for the loss, I have pulled my achilles tendon! Doc want me to stay off it as much as possible. However that’s not easy to do at work. So no cardio for a while.6 -

So much for a weight loss this month. How am I going to lose any weight before my doctor's appointment in July? That is the question.

Just a quick check-in. We took down a wax myrtle yesterday. Lots of hours cutting, loping, bundling limbs, mulching, etc. I'm sore today. Weight wise, I seem to be on a plataue. Time to dust off the kitchen scales and start tracking more closely.
@pupowl - going to be a great flower patch. Tinus seems to like it
@alleykat69 - Congrats on hitting Onderland!5 -

@Sbus12 The link hasn't been posted yet...the MODS will post the link once the room is opened. June's stats will start on Sunday, Jun 4th for the month, so the room should open on Sat, the 3rd.

Good morning Shape Shifters. I biked to another walk early yesterday morning. Already saw lots of neat things on the way. A roebuck, more cuckoos, but the most impressive was a pair of common cranes. We didn't have any of them left until 2001 when they came back to our country. Still their numbers are pretty low so seeing them does not happen that often! I think they are beautiful and we don't have any birds like it, so they just feel exotic. During my walk I saw two birds I have never seen before, a spotted flycatcher and the european pied flycatcher. Both pretty cool! When I biked home again after my walk, I saw another deer. This one was super laid-back and cute. Pictures under the spoiler as usual.
I was really tired in the afternoon, so of course I decided it would be a good idea to get some garden compost for the future flower field. The soil currently isn't great so that will help to improve it. Anyway, I got 3 bags of 40 liters each and figured that would totally be fine on my bike. I already planned to walk home of course, but I didn't really anticipate how bloody heavy it would be. It was a struggle to get all 3 bags on my bike without it falling over. At least 7 times people walked by and nobody offered to help. If I saw an idiot (me, I am the idiot) try to put 3 huge bags of poop on her bike, I would totally offer to help! When I did finally get the bags strapped on, my bike was insanely wobbely to walk with. Any tiny bump in the road and it wanted to fall over to the left, right or rear like a freaking horse because it was so heavy in the back. It was the worst workout of my life walking home like that, gripping the steering wheel like my life depended on it and it took foreverrrr because I had to go slow as a snail. When I got home, I couldn't get the 2 bags out of my bike bags, because you need 2 hands for that. Thankfully a lady from across the street just came home and she helped me out. So yay, I did it. But next time I will not be a stupid, independent gal and ask my dad...
Anyway, happy Wednesday yall. Spoiler

I'm a bit disappointed with how slow it's coming off. I felt like I was doing better this week than a 0.2 lb loss. At least there was a loss for the month. I'm trying to figure out what I can do different for June.7 -

@pupowl - your trails make me want to go running / trotting along them, they're incredible. What do you plan to plant in your garden?
I'm trying to start some Rhododendrons from seed and make a hedgerow of sorts.
We also had a critically endangered species show up here recently, a sunflower sea star, they're a starfish with a lot of legs. I guess almost all of them had died during the starfish wasting disease. I haven't seen them personally yet though, but it made the front page of the newspaper
I feel better this week so am getting quite a bit done. This morning was gardening / weeding / watering.
Have a great Wednesday!3 -
@Itadakimasu7
I just have several different kinds of seed mixes. Different types of wildflowers, stuff for butterflies and a little box with seedbombs. The only specific thing I got is giant sunflowers. They are lots of fun if they do well. All these flowers should also spread themselves out again, so I likely won't have to buy new stuff every year. It is very cheap. I already poured a lot of money into the garden for plants, so seeds it is this time around. If it doesn't end up doing well, I will have to think of something else, but let's just hope it will!
Glad to hear you are feeling better. I also just watered all my plants. It's so much work when you have to fish it up out of barrels one bucket at a time, ugh. More steps though, so yay?

I'd love to continue with the step challenge through June but think I need to lower my goal as I've been way more active through activity that doesn't pick up steps (cycling and hockey). I'll aim for 13.5K steps in June as I plan to keep up those other activities.
thanks for organizing @Pupowl and @jessicakrall8 !!3
