so yesterday i spent amost 6 hours doing yardwork... i felt great the whole time and even afterwards.  well i woke up this morning with my whole body stiff my hands hurting my feet swollan and my legs sore.  

I was so hoping that you would be ok after that yardwork.  Feels like we just keep slipping down that well a little bit eh.  Oh well, climb back up again...lol

Kelsay - I love that name

I had worked in my yard about a week ago and tamed the jungle i had back there.. I hate it when things grow between the fences... so i cut it all down and put chemicals on the roots.. so i worked for a few hours with a break for dinner...i felt great that night except for the tip of my right middle finger... yeah just the tip was swolen to the point the skin felt like it could burst... i was fine the next day... jointwise i was not sore.. but i felt like i had down 50 million squats, backwards! yeah the back of my thighs were so sore!!! my shoulders were a bit sore.. but it was like i exercised too much... so im a really wierd way it was a good soreness!!!! hee hee call me wierd, i wont argue!!!

You poor thing.I bet your yard looks pretty though.Same thing happens to me when I feel good,I always over do it especially when it comes to yard work.You say you are only gonna workout a little while and then that turns into hours.The garden around my house looks so bad, everytime I walk in the front door I am reminded of how this mystery illness has taken away from me the things I love to do.

Well, you best rest up today .And when you hurt the worse look outisde and be proud of the work you got done.One less thing to worry about for now.

Take care,
Sheila
