Garnet had the idea this morning to cut down a branch that was blocking the sun from where we are going to put the pool. After 2 outrageous quotes from the tree services he decided to do it himself. When I asked if it HAD to be done like RIGHT NOW.....he responded (and I quote) "If we are putting up the pool in the end of May that means I only have 27 days left."
Me; Blank Stare
Husband; "Well, it's true."
Me; "Yes, you are right honey, it is true.....27 days....wow! it should have been done yesterday."
Husband who does not have the word patience in his vocabulary whatsoever; "I'm going to rent a chainsaw."
He's at it again!!
Goodbye Branch, Hello Sun!
Big Helper
He was worried because the tree was 'bleeding'
The reason the Emergency Room in Sarnia is still in business....men and chainsaws.
The gloves were a good idea after a few slivers and a good chunk out of his hand
Dad chopped the tree RIGHT HERE!
Wow....I'm up high!
Garnet said he wanted it documented that I was wearing a skirt - raking like a real former farm girl ;)

a visit sounds good, i'm still nervous about Tim going on any big streets -- so understandably we haven't been over the highway (or even out onto exmouth yet!)....we'll be by sometime saturday
yeah, good times mom...good times. :b
obviously i didn't intend on wearing a skirt to do it -- but garnet needed my help as soon as i got home and wanted to drop the wood off at the compost site before they closed. i was only raking though -- the boys took care of the piling. and a no thank you on the wood stove...i like to press a buttona dn wow! instant heat!
