I Do Love to Say, "I Told You So", Though Not So Much When I Told You Your Tree Was Going to Fall on my House.

29 June, 2009

Dear Neighbors,

I told you.

I'm sure you remember. It was when we were having that discussion about that rabid jungle that is your lawn. I mentioned that dead tree hovering over my driveway. You know the driveway I speak of, right?. I sometimes park my car there or let Joshua draw on it with chalk. There's also those power lines that extend right over it, providing me and mine with the electricity we so desperately crave.

See it there all tangled up in that dead tree? I didn't have power for six hours. Six. I was also stuck in the garage (side note, if anyone makes fun of that stupid design on my garage door, I will not be responsible for my actions. It was NOT my doing and will be painted just as soon as James has the time. Ahem.)

So let us recap. I was stuck for six hours with two children, a restless husband, no electricity, and you wouldn't answer the door so I could, politely of course, rub the fact that I was right clean into your face.

I'm just glad we weren't outside. But for the love of God, listen to me from now on, wouldya? Clearly I know what I'm talking about.

Best,
The Tree Whisperer
