I love this. I think it’s breathtaking.

Yesterday we spent much of the afternoon with a chainsaw. My husband had gone down to get the mail, since I received an email saying that a package had been put in the mailbox on Saturday. He took a long time, so I went out to check on him. I found his truck, our dog, Amber, in the back, parked outside the shop. He was putting the chainsaw and a long extension cord in the back. I got our gloves and we went down the driveway again.
A big tree about 6 feet back from one side of the driveway had broken off and its big branches were across the driveway. Happily, the electrical outlet and cord we ran years ago and put in a protective box toward the bottom of the driveway was working, or else we wouldn’t have been able to take care of this ourselves. It took us an hour or so for my husband to chainsaw parts off, and I hauled the parts across the road and rolled them into the ditch. We’ll watch and see if we need to do more, but hopefully, that’s it for a while.

I’m hoping that today will be a quiet day for us. We’ll gather our trash and drive it to the bottom of the driveway soon. I put my gloves and my hand pruner in the truck yesterday so I can take a few minutes to cut down baby mimosa ‘trees’ and other big weeds right at the bottom of the driveway around our mailbox and on the other side, around where we put the trash can for emptying tomorrow. That’ll be it for errands today.
I’m hoping to get back to my ‘new normal’ 3-pound weight exercises several times during the day, after spending time at the computer, plus my yoga stretches. I also want to get up to my art room, since the tree squashed any other plans yesterday.
I wish you a nice, quiet, happy day.
