Garden Adventures


I fell so many times in the front yard last year that it’s on my neurology chart. Up till yesterday we had over a hundred days without an accident.

I wasn’t doing anything athletic, I was sitting low on the rock wall, and I tried to stand up and lost my footing. Totter … totter … succumb to gravity … rear, back, head.

Laugh in case anyone is watching.

Then if course today I used my new extendable telescoping overhead hedge trimmer. Worked great. No accidents. Unless you count slicing through the extension cord twice.

I taped the power cord twice, and now the things it powers make an alternating grinding sound. GRRRRRRgrrrrrGRRRRRRgrrrrr. Iffy. Possible I never noticed the sound before. So, I suppose that counts as an accident. Reset t0 0 DAYS WITHOUT AN ACCIDENT again.
