A girl's first chainsaw

no, not Juliana, me.

Jamie's Christmas present was a pruning service as we had many trees that were out-of-control. I saved money by arranging it such that the pruners did all the cutting and we would do all the clean-up. So now my yards, front and back, are covered with large branches for which I bought myself a Black & Decker Alligator; it's marvelous.

I cut it and the kids haul it away. It's way more fun than dusting.
