hi guys...

this is kinda out there so if necessary remove it .

im in the process of cleaning up my property now that its spring here.

i have next to no landscaping as yet.

my driveway is pretty good but thats it,basically i have 4 acres of trees.lots of hardwood and softwood.

i have been removing as much of the dead and hard looking trees and thinning out the rest.

its starting to look kinda park like.

i have lend of a huge wood chipper that i have been putting all the brush and tops into.ill post pics of it in action later

i save the big stuff for firewood.

anyway i have been wondering that once i get done should i plant grass between the trees or just let it grow up into ferns and other woodsy stuff.i plan to try to average 10 or so feet between the trees,this will encourage them to grow tall and allow me room to work around them.

when i started you could hardley walk between them

i should mention that i dont like mowing lawns but i do have a good variety of riders and tractors at work i could use.

and i really hate pushing a mower. 

thanks for any input ...

later chris

Paula, Paula, Paula,

You totally misunderstood.

When there are so many deserving, wonderful women out there and so few men who appreciate them, it is up to the few caring, sensitive, considerate, gentle, kind men to make sure they know they are appreciated. Sometimes the only way to fit them all in a busy day is to batch process.

That isn't perverted. Its being sensitive to the needs of as many women as you can. <sigh> someone has to make sure they are taken care of. 

Hey Windy

Can I see you try that line on a group of women?  I'd like to watch them 'batch your process'.....

Hey Paula,

They are seasonal and I have been tested for allergies.  Funny thing is that the tests showed nothing.  My doctor the ding dong that he is says it's all in my head.  Well duhhhhhhhhh where else would a headache be in a female?  I've tried different meds and they won't do a thing, I've tried cold and that doesn't work either.  So I figure that I have to live through the blinding pain and do some work.  The hardest thing is to get sleep.  The marching band doesn't stop for anything.  But I get to look on the bright side - winter is coming.

No headaches in winter!!!!!!  That's some of last years snow.  It doesn't show the true amount, but only if it was winter now.

I'm gonna try and take it easy today, not work too hard.  Hopefully the band will keep to a mild session.

Sherri, believe it or not but a good massage that works on the knots in your back and lots of water afterwards followed by heat applied to the area where the knots were works wonders on the headache. I am a nurse and can't still figure out why.

Hope you feel better.

Try to keep hydrated Sherri.  Headaches usually start with not much water is present in the body.

Yea, I need a good massage, thanks mrmom! Paula baby, make it so.

Paula baby???

You'll notice the phrase "Magic Fingers" doesn't appear ANYWHERE in my name......if that gives you a hint on your chances for a massage...

Sherri

Do you know what allergies they tested you for?  Unfortuantely, the allergy tests are not 100 percent reliable....a person can have an allergy and not have it show up on testing.  Have you tried decongestants or antihistamines?  What about a sinus evaluation to see if you have polyps or anything else going on with your sinuses?  Sorry, don't mean to be nosy but the fact that your migraines are seasonal makes me think there has to be SOMETHING that you can take to combat whatever it is about the change of seasons that brings this on. 

Paula

Maybe I'll just call you PB from now on? PB....PB...has a ring to it.

Hmm....the name I tried typing kept getting deleted....guess the censors didn't like it....
