If my Dad asks if you need help pruning the bushes and trees in your yard, just say NO.

    Oh dear god...this reminds me of the scene in the movie Mommie Dearest when Faye Dunaway chopped down the rose bushes after she got fired from Metro.

    Oh no! Reminds me of when I hired someone to take out an icky overgrown Yew bush. I came home to find they had removed the wrong one!

    Just found your blog and I love it. I too have never been married and I just turned 40 this year; it sucks, and I have a whole lot of issues. Thank God...I am not alone! You are "I laughed so hard I nearly choked on my own snot funny."

    I would've loved to have seen your dad's thought process as he worked.

    Looks good to me, but he left a little bit of the stump sticking out of the ground.

    Hi Funny Girl,
    Yes, we 40-somethings with issues have to stick together. No one else gets us! Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you again!

    Carlos,
    His thought process was "you have to cut it back so it will grow again". I'm pretty certain the one arborvitae is a goner for good.

    So how did your dad earn a living back when he was a younger guy? Professional mohel?

    Funny, Judge! No, then he would have only cut off the tips of the bushes.
