Bur

Behold-another post. Life has just gotten exponentially more fascinating.

Mostly this is appearing because I have the Brairdale week of Camp off and there is little else to do around the house save eating, sleeping, and bumming around-which is just the way I like it.

Only too bad for me because mum thought it would be a great idea/bonding time if my sisters and I went to the back yard and hacked weeds. So we earned our keep and did those suckers in, but then mum noticed a particularily nasty brand of bur tree that was hiding behind a pile of dirt/cement. Never one to leave to job half-done I took up arms against the beast and began hacking away at it's base (trunk-practically) but then...

IT FOUGHT BACK!!!
I don't believe I have had my mother spend so much time on my hair in a decade plus.

Oh-and also I drove past my old house yesterday to drop my sisters off at a friends and guess what!?! THEY CUT DOWN OUR GIGANTIC PINE TREE THATS WHAT!

I threw a pity party but it kinda sucked because there were no streamers and no body else even showed up.
