Busy day

We have more light coming into the garden now that the birch tree has been felled.
The wood is green and easy to split. Himself has been busy cutting and stacking.
I've barrowed some of the chippings into an empty compost bay. Because the tree was in leaf the chippings are moist and are heating up well, meaning that they will decompose fairly quickly and make good compost for next year. There is still a good load of chippings left and I'll spread them out on  pathways and mulch under the trees - but that's for tomorrow, I've done enough today!
We've stacked the wood in various corners of the garden where it will stay until it is dry enough to use. We don't want to get it mixed with the seasoned wood already stored in the wood shed.
It's busy work, but very satisfying.

    It is the kind of work I also find very satisfying but would probably feel my arms and shoulders very much on the next day!

      There was a point when the pile of chippings looked as though it would never disappear, but it's now all cleared away and we are ready for the ext job!

    What a lot of work done. You deserve a pint of Barnsley bitter.

      I respect that. I get it from my grandma she wasted nothing and I learned well from her to do the same.

    I really want to thank Dr Emu for saving my marriage. My wife really treated me badly and left home for almost 3 month this got me sick and confused. Then I told my friend about how my wife has changed towards me. Then she told me to contact Dr Emu that he will help me bring back my wife and change her back to a good woman. I never believed in all this but I gave it a try. Dr Emu casted a spell of return of love on her, and my wife came back home for forgiveness and today we are happy again.
