Post subject: | Pruning |
I got a "wild hair" and pruned our ornamental prune tree this morning! I meant to plant tulips but pruning that tree just seemed like more fun. I mainly pruned the part facing our house. It was a mess of tiny branches sticking every which way. Now i have a branch mess on the ground! I'll want gloves to pick those up but right now i have a splinter - one of those teeny-tiny ones you can't see but hurts when it's touched - and don't want to put gloves on. Besides, i may be going to a brunch this morning and need to jump in the shower. |

Have a great brunch! : ) (I don't much like tidying up after myself, either ) |

Yay! I got the splinter out! Whew! Mom didn't want to go to the Christmas brunch after all. Maybe we'll go to town later. I know she wants to get out of the house. There's some shopping to do like TOILET PAPER! |

Scrape the splinter with a credit card or driver's license.. Work away from the way it went in, to prevent pushing it in further. It should come out. (this also works for removing stingers) |

In fact, after she passed away, I gave away a BUNCH - and STILL had enuf for our house for more than a YEAR! |

I may even still have some up in mom's cupboard but i don't go in there any more. sigh My tp space has diminished in the last few years. |

Space? What's that?! Is there no room to walk thru your livingroom? If you can walk thru, you HAVE space You just need to THINK like a hoarder! |

I have become a tissue hoarder. It stems from when we were newlyweds, I could only afford to get one roll a week of Scott's tissue. Thanking the Lord dh got paid weekly. |

Mine may stem from the time we couldn't afford it and used wash rags. Even for monthly stuff. NOT a good time. We lived thru it but i didn't want to go thru it again if we didn't HAVE to. |
