One, we're having the front and west side of our house professionally landscaped. Seeing the cost of that, I decided to do the backyard myself. Neither my mind nor my body are really up to that kind of work. Twenty years ago, I would have enjoyed it, ten years ago I at least could have done if. Now I can do an hour in the morning and, if it's not too hot, an hour in the afternoon and I'm done.
Two, next week I'm having an MRI of my prostate and bloody hell, the prep for that is worse than for a colonoscopy. And the experience of the actual procedure will be worse as well.
This whole thing sucks.
