I ' m currently watching a pile of dry chicken poo , goat raisins , twigs , leaves , and feed bags ( to encourage good burning ) smolder down in the yard . One little corner of my yard is now somewhat clean . * sigh * And I look around and it 's just overwhelming ... I have been sick for a long time and I just let the yard get away from me .

Question: Why might being sick delay yard work ?
Answer: Too lazy to get it done .Not enough energy to get it done .Not enough help .The weather was too cold .
