Up to IR and CA here this morning. Hubbie went to picked up g-son and take him to school while the girls and I watched TV. I got chores done when he got back and we all had breakfast together. We waited once again until 10:00 for our tree cutters to show back up. One of them had a flat tire this morning so that threw them more behind. They went right to work and got a lot done today.
The girls played below the house for most of the day until lunch and then CA took a long nap and IR played out front on the swings and rode this little green battery operated tractor.
The tree trimming was more nerve wracking today as they dropped really heavy pieces that jarred the entire house when they hit the ground. They got all the limbs down except one in the very top of the first tree they trimmed. They worked for 5 hours today before they wore out. They were supposed to have a third man today which would have definitely made things easier but he didn't show up. After they left I went to pick up an Aldi order and then we went to work cleaning up all the limbs and logs they dropped today.
#2 son and #1 son brought came to help today and we worked for about 3 hours today getting the mess cleaned up but we are ready for day number three now which will be Thursday. The tree cutters had another obligation for tomorrow.
All that is left to get down are the tall tree trunks and one lone limb in the top of one of the trees.
I got chores done and then hubbie and I both collapsed for the second night in a row but it feels good to get this finally done.
Thankful for the blessings of this day and for the safety of the tree cutters .

Wow, that is a lot of timber that came down. Should be a lot of fuel for winter heating. Blessings
