I Am Spartacus(NOT!) 

Yesterday was a productive day for me. After years of having someone else mow my lawn, I've finally taken matters into my own hands. Got me this nice electric mower, and was able to tackle the jungle in back of my house. 

Feeling like quite the manly man, taming the beastly lawn and all. What I jokingly call a Spartacus Moment.

The real accomplishment was finally getting back to mowing my own lawn. Forging my own destiny and all.. 

It was quite a workout. Finishing up, all drenched with sweat, I was immediately reminded that I'm almost sixty-nine years old. 

. The exhaustion stayed with me the rest of the day, and even after I went to bed. A little bit worrisome.  It finally subsided, and I was able to drift off to sleep. Some Spartacus…

So I'm taking it easy today. Especially since my body gave me a stern lecture on the evils of over-exertion. The guitar will get a workout today, but that's about as strenuous as I'm getting. 

I'm still playing most every day, even yesterday after all that yardwork. Some more stuff to share to YouTube. I'm enjoying hearing from folks out there. So, as Dean Martin used to say, keep those cards and letters coming. 

That's all I've got for now. Thanks as ever for stopping in and reading. Happy Monday to you! I'm outa here. More later.
