So this past weekend we had some storms come through and knocked over a few large trees. We were fortunate, the large trees around us are still standing but we did loose a small tree that was between us and one of our neighbors. We filled our last yard bag with some tree pieces we cut but still have a few larger branches left. We've been using a regular wood saw to cut the tree to pieces and that was slow going; I think we will be getting some loppers to lop the branches into smaller pieces to go out with next weeks compost.
In other news, I haven't really touched the office yet to get it organized. I got myself sidetracked with other projects. I did change the light bulbs in our basement so it isn't so dreary. Of course I did this now when it's getting cooler, and not sooner when we were taking refuge from the summer heat. I've also upgraded my coupon keeper to a binder with trading card protector pages. With the mini holder I was using a lot of coupons were expiring before I used them, but could have used and didn't because either I didn't know they were there or didn't realize they expired so soon. Hopefully with the binder they won't expire and I'll get to use them instead. The only downside is the binder doesn't fit in my purse at all, so it's a little more difficult to carry. I think in the long run the binder will pay off though.
