Whoa! Can't keep up with the leaves. Mom got blisters raking. We have 10 bags so far. The laurel is dropping berries like crazy too. Harder to pick them up.

Got in the pool again so I could get the leaves and berries out. About 3 more days worth of avocado leaves still on the tree. I hope it doesn't do a "ha ha only 50 leaves a day for a month" and goes ahead and drops the rest at the same rate as now. Want to get it over.

Tried that shrimp taco. I can leave it. Mom said to spicy. I still like the crunchy tacos and the bean burritos best.

Tomorrow we plan to bag the rest of the leaves and spread the mulch over the flowers we planted. We are both getting plenty of exercise. Right now both our backs hurt. My fingernails are a mess. But today most of the time I had gloves on. Thanks Honey.
