What Are You Doing Today?

Got up at 5:00 am, worked on my directory job, then went back to bed at 9:30 am, got up at 1:30 pm, and am back to work on the computer. I was going to take the trash and add another layer of stuff to the compost pile but I think I'll leave it until tomorrow. In between, I had breakfast (potatoes fried with some cut-up bacon, and an egg scrambled into it).
 
Ugh, I know exactly what you're saying. I have to be the "designated trimmer," or my husband will get out the chainsaw and cut the hedges off at the ground. He doesn't get the "shaping" concept and believes that twigs look fine because "they will grow back". 😲 So I use the long hedge clippers that have the "scissor" mechanism. By the time I've done one hedge I'm steps away from urgent care.

I have some electric clippers but I have cut two expensive extension cords in half so I'm not allowed to use those without supervision.
I have a pair of cordless Dewalt clippers that work great for large pruning jobs, Just keep any fingers away form the blades or thy can be pruned as well:)
 
Let's see, what am I doing today? Currently, at 11AM (PT), I'm finishing up doing some laundry, finishing up eating a good breakfast and continue to pack some things for our move. Around 2PM, I'll be tired (didn't get good enough sleep last night) and will sit in my recliner and either play an iPhone computer game that I love and/or watch two tv recordings of Tour of Duty, and, if enough time, watch one of three Gunsmoke movies I've bought from Amazon (The Last Apache, Return To Dodge, The Last Man).

Actually, my 1/2 brother stops doing physical work around 2PM also. Both of us, due to the Lupron Hormone Injection we get.
