Up to work.

Couldn't eat much.  But did some work.  The first part was checking to see if some lights worked.  I was able to do that from ground level.  When the lights worked, I had to get the ladder.   Moving the ladder, then setting it up, is a chore.  Did that and did what I could to reset the lights.

Then a break.  Oh, but I washed a few big windows, inside and out, before that.  The living room plate window and the back kitchen trio... each almost as big as the plate, two thirds?  Really looking better.  Though, in time, will try CLR mineral remover to see if that will finish the last issues.  Even so, quite a bit improved.

After those things I took that break.  Well, opened windows before sitting and sipping.  Inside and out were neutral by then, or even cooler outdoors already.  Then a keto sandwhich.  And cans of water at various times.

Then the ladder moved to the back yard.  Set up.  The step ladder wouldn't work.  So I put it in extension form, then got it up in where I wanted it, plus got it settled.  Had to take another break.  That thing is a beast.  Forty feet, or more, fully extended?  Meant to handle my old weight, plus gear.  Heavy, difficult to maneuver.

Then up I went.  I was hoping I could get it all from that spot.  Nope.  I was hoping it would be one branch.  Nope.  Three twenty to thirty foot branches where removed.  I took some up to begin a grab machine pile.  Then decided to cut the rest into movable, stackable, lengths.

But that was it.  I couldn't move any more up front.  I couldn't reset the ladder, or move it.  No more this, that, or the other thing.  Mom tried to get me to do more.  I simply told her "no".

Oh?  What did I say about shorts, and tree work?  Gah!  I ripped my shin pretty meanly.  One of the bigger branches decided to give me some payback on the way down.  Not again.  As well, long sleeve heavy, tarp, shirts, with tshirt padding, and long heavy workpants, from now on.  I did wear gloves.  A good thing, a start.

So tired.  Watered the lawn tonight, to.  Will tomorrow again, different section.  I need sleep.  Needed to patch the shin.   It was pretty bad.  Meh.  Live and do try to learn.  Good night.
