Working Out Using My Rake
Apr 7th, 2009 Posted in Weight Loss | no comment »
We have a new lawn customer and we cut and trimmed her yard yesterday. I volunteer with her in the gift shop at the hospital when her partner can’t work. I decided to rake all the leaves that were in the front ditch and under her hedges. This bright idea took me three hours and a multitude of leaf bags.
Raking…..bending over and filling the sacks…..carrying them/dragging them to our truck….wow….that was a GREAT workout. Although the weather was cool, I managed to work up a sweat. When I finished and stepped back to look at my work. I was pleased. It looked great. She kept telling me to quit because she thought I was working to hard. I knew she was happy with the end result.
