Friday - early
Still feeling quite miserable. Plus, my face broke out in this swelling/rash/bumps, very ugly and very uncomfortable. No idea what is causing that, but the last time I got sick, the same thing happened.
Never-the-less, I'm going to go over there and continue to work on lot weed and grass clean up. I"m going to Lowe's for a new weedeater/trimmer and get as much done earlier before the wicked heat hits as I can before my energy is gone and I can do no more.
Guaranteed my energy will be gone long before the worst of the heat hits this afternoon.

Lowe's, weedeater, lasted all of 2 hours out there but it was enough to not only finish the 3 lots but get started on others as well. What actually happened is the battery ran out - I bought battery powered weedeater - charged it for 20 minutes - ran out again and just decided that I had had enough and left. The battery will be fully charged by the time I get back either later today or tomorrow.
My face is so itchy. This giant rash or whatever it is is getting to me I took a Benadryl last night before bed to help alleviate the itching - which it did - but now it's back with a ferocity that was no there yesterday. Lady at the park asked if I had the Rona? I dunno, didn't go to the doc. You probably did, I just got over it. I informed her that I am far from well, just came over to take care of some weeds/grass that people were complaining about.
I have no idea if my efforts will get them to change their mind about leaving - they never said this to me, it was the bartender at the restaurant that overheard them talking - but at least i can say I tried. I've spent several hours working on their lots, pulling weeds, grass and cleaning up. It doesn't look very good without real grass in there, but that, allegedly, wasn't their issue. It was just the overgrowth. I'll find out at the end of the month. Tho, I will go back in a week or so and freshen it up for them a bit.
I dunno, but when I got home 20 minutes ago, I headed straight for the shower. Wash my face off and clean up.
Just remembered I have a tube of anti-itch cream. Stuff actually works. Pretty miserable with a face itching all over. I'll be keeping that stuff around today...

So already, all 3 of those renters were back at that restaurant and again, my bartender overheard them saying I had gotten all of their lots. I'm not sure if that means they're staying or not - my bartender seems to think they are. I didn't know those guys were going to that restaurant so frequently. I hope so. I"ll be visiting those lots on a weekly basis to ensure they remain happy. In fact, I'm just going to make time every week to visit all lots and work on them.
On another note, I actually don't think this face rash has anything to do with the sickness. It is highly likely that I am having an allergic reaction to one of the various types of weeds out there. I was thinking about it. Pull weeds, got hot and sweat, wipe the sweat off my face - and whatever is on my hands onto my face and walaah. It's just that it's coinciding with being sick.
I have a problem getting my hands into gloves being sold from lowe's or Harbor Freight. They don't fit. My hands are apparently larger than average sized hands because I have to tug and pull and try to force them on. So I haven't been using gloves. Time to change that and try to just force the work gloves on. Maybe they'll stretch once I get my fingers into them.
That's all. I have done nothing else today besides sleeping and resting. I'm starting to feel a little better at least.
