My portfolio is down about 30% for the year. (Not that I was looking to sell, but it's that comfy cushion against retirement or disability).

The hot water heater has decided to leak.

I guess that my scheme to hire a landscape company to overhaul the yard before winter may need to be put on hold, unless I can scare up some more freelance jobs to finance it with. Which just makes me pretty normal in this year's economy, doesn't it?

same for forsythia & lilac -- you want to prune right after blooming.

as for evergreens -- the ones w/the translucent red berries are yews. You can prune evergreens almost anytime, although the birds would probably appreciate it if you waited until spring, after they've eaten what they want :)
