Things that deserve the stink-eye:

My son gave me a battery-powered chainsaw for my birthday. I LOVE IT. 

There's just one problem: I MUST CHAINSAW EVERYTHING. IMMEDIATELY. 

Whoa: the dopamine hit from this thing?! *chef's kiss*

I am like that annoying semi-retired superhero next door, sawing sawing sawing while wearing my yardwork Grandpops flat-cap and sketchy hole-in the knees superhero pyjamas, saggy everywhere, except for (of course) my biceps. 

Although I am characteristically a gentle man, pshaw, Chris Hemsworth. 

Anyway, if I am unable to find more things to saw, you should know, dear neighbour, that I will begin chainsaw-light-sabering the most evil force of all: spruce bugs. You're welcome.

  2. Do you REALLY need all those trees in your yard? How about your neighbours?

  3. We still have a corded lawnmower, but I think many people have converted. It's a pain, but we have little to mow, so I think I'll just endure the dratted cord.

  4. I am going to add a chainsaw to my Christmas wish list. A must-have, for sure. I spent some time sawing an old fallen tree to pieces with an ordinary hand saw this morning. I could have achieved so much more with a chainsaw!
