#stupid life stuff

Had an eventful day: we were scheduled to have our power turned off (lines physically disconnected from our house and our neighbors’ house) so we could start taking the branches off a tree that had grown around said powerlines. Things were going okay until they weren’t: J got his leg bruised and scraped by a falling branch, and in the process of using heavy duty pruners to cut long branches shorter, I went for a branch that was too thick and sprained my left arm so I can’t supinate/pronate without pain.

After that dose of fun, another branch fell past our safeguards and pulled the internet cable out and snapped it. (We couldn’t coordinate both energy/internet service providers to disconnect us on the same day/same time.) So even though our power was restored as planned in a timely manner, we can’t get our internet reconnected until Wednesday night. Woops. I’m using mobile now when I should be saving it.

My first worry (aside from our injuries, we will be fine) was that I might have to log in again for photoshop cc to work. I’m pleased to say that wasn’t the case.

Long story short: we are dumb, and reaping the rewards of our dumb! And we didn’t even get to fully dismantle the tree as planned.
