I was pulling up chicken trees with a tractor and chain and got cocky, went for this one tree that has been taunting me for a while, bigger than most.

figured I’d shorten the chain to get a solid yank, got a good running start…and it came crashing down on my head

nice lump on my noggin now

I pulled what I at first thought was a weed but as soon as I yanked I realized it was a nascent wine cup

The wife announced that tomorrow is the day to clean gutters and do random yard work. If the sun rises in the morning, chances are good I'll have some dumbassery to report tomorrow.

Chainsaw, limb, ladder x 3
Roof, limb, pole saw
Roof, ladder, steep pitch

FA doesn’t always = FO as non of these resulted in injury.

I have cut plenty of smaller limbs off of trees knowing they were coming down on my head.

I did drop a larger limb in my driveway and watched as it put a 4” dent in my Expedition. Felt pretty dumb watching that.

I've contemplated building one of these with all of the oak trees.

No stumts yet, but finally brought my chipper/shredder up here and there a lot of wind coming with this cold front so I'm sure I'll get a chance soon.

Just lost a good bit of hair a couple hours ago blowing into the left side of the pizza oven and having flames shoot out the right side.

I didn't have anything clearly suited to cover my satsuma tonight so I put together a combination of cattle panels and king sized quilts. Looks like a homeless camp.

Other than filling my day with things that kept me outside when it's in the low 20s? My hands hate me. Got lots done though.

Bait it up with a bottle of md2020 and you’ll have bums in the morning.

Cutting down a Leland with a chainsaw... couldn't quite make it all the way through. Only had at most... 1/2 inch left. Stepped over... got the Leland down. Also got into my leg to the tune of 18 stitches just above kneecap. Thankfully not ON kneecap.

So that happened.
