    Yep been too cold, windy or rainy to get much work done he either. Stinks, just like the Summer drought and heat wave did. We went from dust bowl leaves to thick as mud leaves. 5 % of witch don't seem to want to be mulched

    I'm finally going to be able to put mulch down today on a large landscape project. Seems like I have been going to the same house everyday for a month. Going to finish it, pick up final payment and try to catch up again. I was determined to get this project done before Christmas.

    Equipment keeps giving me trouble. Blower, mower,and hedge trimmer have all died. On separate occasions. Gotta fix the trimmer and im good. Cold out there and i dont have a shop, storage etc to work out of... Yet.

    Trying to make a few key moves/goals for 2017, hope you do too. Take it easy everyone.

    Yea I have spent a lot of money on repairs lately. Personal and business. Just seems like it never ends. Fix one thing and there goes something else. Bummed out about the whole thing. Hopefully time will fly by and it will be Spring before we know it
