Family Day

I'm taking the kiddos to go to our family farm today. I'm happy to go - the kids have been harping on me to get up there but I hate to leave on such a pretty day that I could use to get further with my project. But I also feel like I could use a day of rest. It's good to know that my body can still put up with a full day of digging since most of the time I'm a professional desk jockey. The first couple of days of digging my left knee became really sore but over the week I became less sore and felt the muscles waking up. Need to stay with it and maybe find the gym a little more often!
Another good reason to take a break today is that poison ivy rashes have appeared - even after daily scrubbing with ivy soap from CVS and trying to be careful with gloves, etc. Not crazy, bad rashes but an annoyance nevertheless. I ran out of my trusty Tecnu so I need to order some more from Amazon.
