The Day in rewind: Day 2

Ok, so today I woke up to eat a bowl of cerial and start chopping down the largest tree in the neighborhood. The reason for this is because of Hurricane Gustav. It blew my neighbors tree in my yard and he is only responsible for cleaning up the mess in his yard and not mine. Which leaves me with this gigantic task of cutting down a tree.

My neighbor was nice enough to cut down large branches so he could get to the base on his property. However this still left me with a bunch of very long branches to cut into smaller pieces. I've been doing all of this cutting with a hand saw up until this weekend. I borrowed a chain saw from a youth pastor here in town. Its been a much faster process than the past 3 weeks without it.

So here I am completely exhausted and done for the day. I still have a bunch more but I need to get the chain saw sharpened. Tomorrow I will probably spend most of the day trying to cut up the 5 foot tall base along with a few other thick/long limbs. AHHHHHHH. If I had any money I'd hire someone to do this for me... but I don't.
