Over Doing It

I didn't seem to learn anything from my poor performances on the bike recently so I decided to mow the lawn tonight. I hadn't mowed it since the day before my parents flew in from Ohio (about a month ago) becuase I had been way to sick. Amy's Dad, Hugh, helped out big time on last Tuesday by mowing it for me but the grass was so long that he had to raise the wheels as high as they could go. So even though it had just been mowed about 6 days ago, it badly needed it again.

I started a little after 5 pm and ended around 9. And now I'm seriously paying for it. My throat has completely seized up preventing me from talking much and I few absolutely miserable. Such a dumb ass I am. I better get feeling better quick though becuase I can't take any more time off without taking a leave of absence without pay. Even if they didn't fire me, I couldn't because all of my savings went into the house. I've started saving again but have less than $1,300. So the heat is definitely on.
