Don't You Hate It When . . .

[arista]

I hate figuring out to wear everyday. Sometimes in Indiana, we have bipolar seasons. Yesterday was 84 degrees and today the high is 64.

This is never a problem for me.........

The owners of the park that I live in are cutting down perfectly good trees, about 6 of them, for what purpose I don't know. It makes me angry. Now it's going to make it hotter here in the summer. I liked those trees.....

Are they Ash trees perhaps?
If they are there's a good chance they've become hosts to the Ash Borer Beetle, they've justa 'bout wiped out Ash trees around here in The Mighty BlueGrass, and a bunch of Ohio,.probably a lot of Indiana, too, they move way fast.

The one they're cutting down now is an apple tree. Crab apple, but still.

We have had to lose some of our beautiful old trees because they are drying out and a danger in tornado weather. I know a man who lost his life when a tree fell on him during a sudden storm. He was sitting in the park.

Ah, happens to Crabapple a lot, they get messier as they get more mature, that and/or harder on mowers...they get planted with a shelf life is my observation.
I worked a winter in a bar on a street lined with them, gathered a couple bushel baskets full and gave 'em to a sweet ol' gal that shared with me some Crabapple jelly and homemade wine...still drank back then, might right now if I had a bottle...well, milk jug

You keep doin' that, be happy, not grass stained
I hate cuttin' grass, almost rather be run over by a lawn mower, besides, I figure what did that grass ever do to me

I agree.

The thing is - He put so much effort into making a whole new lawn - carted wheelbarrows full of soil, planted the seeds, etc. He worked his butt off for that grass. Then all of a sudden he got a job opportunity to work up North!

Oh well - I will try to get that lawn mower working tomorrow after work - I was too exhausted tonight and just went to bed.
