20. Working outside (Listen and Read)

Today I was working outside.

It was a sunny day,

and I was very hot.

I wore a hat on my head.

I watered all the plants.

I weeded the flower beds.

I cut back all of the plants that were growing too big.

I gave some of the plants plant food.

I cut the lawn.

I raked the lawn.

I filled up the bird baths with water.

I swept the sidewalks and the paths.

I took out the garbage.

I filled the car up with gas.

I washed the car.

I hung out the clothes on the clothesline.

I washed down the lawn furniture.

I washed all of the windows on the house from the outside.

I was so tired.

So I had a glass of lemonade.

I talked to my neighbor,

and I helped her trim a tree.

I planted some bulbs,

and then I went into the house.

I was exhausted.
