That oak tree on the left was way out of hand. It was to the point where I had to duck to walk under it. It was seriously out of control. I'm so excited now. Yes, it's nice to have the trees and yard cleaned up but when I saw how much better the trees look, all I could think of was how nice it'll be with Christmas lights wrapped around them. I think I might've even thought out loud with Antonio standing right there. I'm also happy about not worrying whether or not the HOA is going to call us out. Next up, I just need to get some mulch to put down. That won't get done today because my back's a little stiff. I ordered a new rug for the living room last week and I wanted us to get the old one out last night for big trash pick up today. We forgot. I remembered this morning after Cosme left. I rolled it, taped it, and dragged it out the front door. The new one should be here on Friday and I'm hoping it looks okay. It might be a little bit smaller and it's also got a print and isn't shaggy. I was about to order a crazy colored one but then I walked through the living room and remembered that printed chair we have. It wouldn't have matched at all. I ordered a neutral one. Oh well, moving on to new things. I really liked that old rug and it was a good quality but it had seen better days. The new one didn't cost as much as the old one because I didn't want to feel bad about when I eventually have to throw it out too.
Okay, time to get busy. I've got to go to the church today and I have things I want to get done before I leave... like staring out the window at the pretty trees.
