Gymgirl said:The Lord sent me TWO much-undeserved blessings today.
I had JUST finished mowing the yard and front lawn. I was exhausted, but had cranked up the edger, when a tree-trimming company pulled up and informed me they had to trim my huge yard tree from the power lines.
In a nutshell, they trashed my yard, cut the tree fully in half for me vertically after we struck up a deal for them to return next month and take down the rest of the tree, then cleaned up everything (ALMOST where it was when they arrived)!
I got SUNLIGHT along the entire back fence, twigs to rebuild the compost bins, and plant stakes from straight branches I cut before the chipper showed up. The squirrels are totally confused 'cause they can NO longer jump from the fence to the tree, and, I'm getting a great deal when they return.
And, when they had gone off for a lunch break, the Gen'l Contractor I've been trying to pin down for six months showed up, took a seat in the yard with me and got to my business, leisurely and thoughtfully.
Trust me, I've been patiently waiting for six months because his crew is THAT good... He's doing yet another project for my neighbor across the street, and his work is gorgeous!
There's NO WAY I could've planned this day.
But, God...
