Trimming


Yesterday I broke down and bought a new yard trimmer. I bought Jack one a few years ago that was pretty heavy duty. So heavy duty in fact that I can never start the thing by myself.

One of the things I hate to do is ask for help, especially on something as silly as starting a weed trimmer!

I stopped at our local TSC (Tractor Supply Company) and looked at all their models. They had them ranging in price and abilities as you can imagine. I settled on the least expensive model that has to be plugged in to work. What you say? Plugged in? Yes, my new trimmer needs to be plugged into a power cord.

Last night I got it out and HOLY SMOKES is that thing nice! The cord was really no problem at all and the thing was a beast! It had no problems with the large weeds that had taken over in our rock beds and elsewhere.

Now I can trim more than once a year and the place will look a little less wore down. Or that's the hope!

I've got a real nice weed trimmer, heavy duty that doesn't require you carry it around. I was tired of having my arms vibrated off, so we found one that you push, talk about some serious weed kill!
