Yard work!

All summer we have tended to the flowers and grass to make them look better than the next persons.  And all too soon it is time to do fall clean up.  Some of the flowers have died back already so they needed to be cut.  My job of course.  Some of the evergreens need a trim, also my job.  Then there is the rhodadendrum, his job, I got there before he did.  When he does it it looks like the tree cutters got it, he cuts it right down.  That is not a trim!  So if I can get it before him, I trim it and hide the clippers so he can't go finish it off!  This is how we do the yard work.  I want to cut the forsythia bushes down but he doesn't want them cut like I want.  They also come up every year and go wild.  Oh well, till next year they will stay the way they are, and we get to start all over.  Isn't it easier to live in an apartment and let someone else do all this work?....
