Yesterday, Eor dropped two smaller ash trees (5 inches and maybe 7 inches diameter), bucked them up, and got the branches and wood moved to appropriate places. He cut down quite a lot of large honeysuckle bush and a buckthorn tree. He harvested potatoes and got the garden leveled back out, and brought the potato grow boxes (you stack them and fill them with dirt as the plants grow) down to the barn for winter storage.
I'm trying to think what I did... I know I cooked us a huge breakfast, went for a blood test in the morning, and stopped at the grocery store (where I let a random elderly lady who'd lost her husband use my phone to try and find him). Then I spread compost around to a bunch of holes in the lawn, and mowed some of the lawn. Cleaned the previous bunch of potatoes off so Eor could have the potato baskets to harvest into.
Today, Eor cut up the buckthorn and honeysuckle, and I ran them to the dump. I planted garlic. Eor dropped a staghorn sumac and half a large double ash tree (probably 16 inch diameter), bucked both of them, and started to split the ash, while I brought up a lot of the cut and split wood.
As always it can be summed up that he does the hard work and the dishes, and I pick up after his work, do a bunch of driving around, keep us fed and do laundry.
We did finally decide where we are going to build a woodshed. That only took five years, so it'll probably only take another 20 to finish it.
