So,it's windy here today, but nice enough to get out in the yard and do something.......yes, I took a handsaw out with me and started trimming off branches that sprouted from the bottom of a few trees. It makes mowing the lawn easier when I don't have to dodge branches. Anyhow, I finish what I'm doing and start walking back to the house. I look down at my hands and one finger is bleeding on one hand and the hand I was using to saw with now has a blister. I know I could have used an electric saw, but I have no depth perception, so I tend to stay away from anything that could harm me quickly. Imagining now I'd be on my way to the ER if I used anything other than the handsaw. I never felt it cut into me. The things I do when left home alone without a plan. I'm sure there's more around here to do that can get me hurt or in trouble, so I'll try to remember that no one is here with me if I get hurt.
