Has this week been all over the place with you like it has me?
I tell you what, it's been 1 thing after another with the weather
& the tree I've been TRYING to get down, but it's been a mess.
We've lost 2 wks in trying to get the tree down, we got the $ he
wanted to DO the job & he'd set up a date then had to cancel it
to set up another date, then he came out cut what he could in
like 4 hrs & stopped said he was going to get the crane, o.k.
he said he was on his way back with the crane & something
on the road hit the truck underneath & messed up the transmission
GREAT ! ! ! This was on a Friday, we'll be out there Saturday
NOPE couldn't get the truck fixed we'll be there Monday yeah.
Well Monday isn't going to be any good cause there's going to
be MORE bad if not WORSE weather for the NEXT 3 days &
Thursday I have lab work I have to get done at the hosp, so that
blows ANOTHER week in the head for 5.000 $ it sure isn't getting
a tree down, it's giving me a headache & lots of grey hair.
I sure will be glad when it's down & out of the way & OVER with
so I can look forward to getting that area cleaned up & on to other
things, like getting the siding & awning on the area of the cabin
where I can set my pond back up again & get all THAT done with.
Then work on getting the awning over the front part of the cabin
where we can have a place to park the car & work under.
We have a lot of work to do & never enough time for NONE of it.

The best laid plans of mice and men..
Or something like that
Who would have thought a tree saga could go on so long

I never thought 1 job of taking a tree down
would take damn near 3 wks cause of the
weather, the road accidents, other stuff
coming up, every excuse that holds 1 job up.

Weather and road problems sure can take a chunk out of plans.

You right about that & makes you wonder
if the people doing the job is really serious
about getting the job done in the 1st place.
I'm also wondering if they are going to cut
me a break on taking so long it took to get
it down, THAT would be nice & save me
a 1.000.$ that would go towards our Fla trip.
