I did it. I had a goal of getting all of the nuisance jobs around the place done by Thanksgiving. I actually managed to do it one week early.
Today I finished cutting apart the big tree branch that fell in the basketball court. Better still, Ellen managed to get all of the trash, front tree, basketball tree, and the other stuff that had been stacked up, burned. That cedar stuff burns even when it's green. She would just put it in the barrel, the green leaves would dry out, and then the whole thing would start to burn like it was soaked in gasoline. Those tree are scary, and we have a lot of them.
Branch demolition and trash burning took about 3.5 hours. Afterwards we both took showers. Then it was off for a late lunch. 2 om is one of the few times that Chuy's isn't packed. So we went there. The food was pretty good. I can't say the same about the mojito that I ordered. I think the bar tender forgot to add any rum. Also, the glass was filled to the brim with ice. Apparently Chuy's is one of those places that specialize in selling weak drinks to people who don't care.
We stopped at Costco for some water. They have a 75" TV on sale at a really good price. I just don't know if I want to go through the hassle of changing out TVs. I sure don't feel like doing it right now.
The evening is going to be surfing and football. At least for awhile. The teams playing may make it a real crappy game.
