Excuses, Excuses

Nothing I attempted to write tonight was worth reading and I considered going to bed without posting at all before deciding to keep myself honest. The reason I’m exhausted is fairly stupid: we got a new string trimmer.

What (very) minimal setup it required — the video tutorial runs about 90 seconds — was embarrassingly difficult due to my left arm. Operating it was equally tedious and frustrating, but ‘Niles’ has such extensive, disruptive problems with weeds and brush that I saw no easier alternative to eliminate a growing problem (pun intended).

Next on my to-do list is replacing kitchen lightbulbs, which will require a ladder and marital strain. If you don’t hear from me tomorrow, it likely means I’m in traction.
