I'm feeling it today too- need to up my weights in strength trainingYesterday- hauled 5-50lbs bags of rock into and out of the car and to the new garden along with 3-50lbs of sand and 5 bags of mulch. Mulch isn't usually that bad but it was soaking wet.Hubs dug 3 whellbarows full of dirt out of the new garden while I cleaned out my River Rock border to make room for more River Rock that we hauled out of the old garden.Then today I cleaned out 2 flower beds to make room for the dirt from the old garden- got rid of almost half of the dirt pile and spread 3 bags of mulch.I still need to distribute the rest of the dirt - but I think I'm done for the day. My back and hamstrings are tired. Texas gardening isn't for the weak!! In Ohio we clean out the beds and replant and trim bushes once a year. Down here it's a never ending chore!!!!

Yeah, no kidding. My first month down here I broke a shovel in this so-called dirt. 4951
