Yardwork! Again?!? Ughhh!!!
Dumb developers put a huge mesquite tree in everyone's front yard. Aggressive Home Owners Association must lurk around the corner waiting for the tree to do its business and hit us up for fines. Thing needs to be trimmed like twice a year or it threatens to rip off roof tiles, sheds leaves every winter, and drops seed pods everywhere every summer. Darned things grow to enormous sizes, but the yards are small. What were these guys thinking??? So, I spent the better part of the day doing more yardwork than a body should have to to avoid going broke paying for landscapers to do it for me.
There. I said it. Rant over. Least I have stopped moaning and groaning from the core workout I got doing it. I always refer to yardwork as "crossfit" for that reason.
Personally I would have opted for a Joshua tree. At least it is indiginous to the area and wouldn't dump stuff all over the yard.
