Let your dollars do the work

Yesterday the most ass busting annual chore I have around the house was done, without me lifting a finger.  The tree service I used last year came out to the property yesterday morning and cleaned up all of the higher cabbage palms as well as cleaning/lifting the oak tree in the chicken yard.   To trade off 7-8 hours of ass busting labor for a few hundred dollars is something I would not have been willing to do in my younger days however now it’s a no brainer.  If anything I kick myself for not paying someone to do this years ago.  The damage it would do to my body combined with the dangerous situations I put myself in to reach the highest trees was sort of dumb.

I still do have trimming to do, however it consists mostly of trees I can do from ground level.  In total I should be able to get it all done in the span of an hour or so, a huge improvement over what was my reality the first 18 years I lived at the house.  I may even try to get that trimming done tonight after work, so I don’t have to be bothered by it over the weekend.
