I just mowed the house lawn AND the back lot, which is a pretty big piece of land. I never do both at the same time but I had to concentrate on what I was doing so my brain had to put its spin cycle on hold.

I think a hot soak in a bath of lavender scented Epsom Salts might be next on my agenda. Laundry can wait until tomorrow.
