Gardening work

Today Was devoted to hard gardening work which included chain sawing logs and a lot of lifting, carrying and much cleanup.
It was a milestone for me since it was the first time ever that I got over my fear of using the chain saw and learned how to saw pieces of logs and clean and oil the chain saw.

On the advice of my neighbors John and Marilyn, I started drinking lemon-balm tea every night before sleep. I pick up some fresh lemon-balm from my garden in the late afternoon and put it in a teapot with boiling water. It is delicious and calming.
