SUMMER CHORES










Since moving into our home years ago, the bushes out front have aged and gotten bigger. We weren't crazy about them then...and we liked them less and less as the years wore on.

We kept saying one summer we were going to take them out...but it sounded like a lot of work...so we 'just talked' about it.











But this summer...by golly...we decided to do it. Unfortunately...we chose an afternoon that we worked all day first. What was hopefully going to be 'somewhat' quickly completed...wasn't!
But they're done. They've gone from here...










...to here...ready for the street department to haul them away.
Did I mention how much...our bodies hurt right now?
We may need a sick day tomorrow...or a crow bar to pry us out of bed. Of course this will now lead to the purchase...digging...and planting of new bushes, plants and flowers to replace the ones just removed.
Damn summer chores !
