Title: didn't use spoons wisely
Post by: eye2dry on March 18, 2012, 03:09:42 PM
hello All.

Saturday afternoon..I felt pretty chipper...was a warm partly sunny day.

decided to wash my car in the driveway and vacuum it out. Backed my car out and went in the garage to assemble everything I needed to wash my car.

Looked around and the garage floor was dirty/messy. I thought..I can't have that..need to sweep it out..

After using a push broom on the cement floor of our 3 car garage..I was exhausted..my arms were so sore..I was short of breath.....

I then put my car back in the garage...DIRTY...came in the house and took a 2 hour nap.

I will run it through the automatic carwash this week.

Apparently...I only had a couple spoons left for this weekend and I used them all up sweeping the garage.

Gosh, I know how that feels. I always have such ambitious plans for the weekend and I'm lucky if I get through half of them  ;) At least you have a clean garage!

i found that i don't sweep out the garage any more.

When it needs it - I use the leaf blower and blow all the stuff out of the garage!

Im sorry you ran out of spoons. Sometimes we just think there are more than there really is. I hope you feel better soon.
