it's lovely to get a place sorted out, isn't it? We've been spring cleaning and getting rid of lots of old rubbish and junk. The bedroom looks miles better.
very reasonable: two guys worked their asses off in the baking sun from before 11am until 6:30, carting away four truckloads of leaves which (I looked it up) will have cost them $40 each to dump.
Not counting how much they spent on all the equipment (a $400 trash pump they've so far used only three times this year; a set of brand new fireman hoses; pressure washer; etc)...
My whole body is in agony, muscles, joints, sunburned skin, mosquitobites (I have 10 on each ankle alone), scratches, bruises... and I didn't work a fraction as hard as they did.
