Why I should have a landscaper

This is the Black & Decker electric hedge trimmer that Drew and I purchased on Saturday when we were out shopping with Kathy. We have quite a few bushes and shrubs (hedges if you will) out front and on the side of our house. These have all become a little unruly over the past few months and trimming them by hand takes time and patience. I am lazy so they never get the attention they fully deserve. We took a leap of faith and bought this sucker for $20 from some guy outside at the Virginia Bazaar (see a few posts back). Outside is like a flea market, inside there are many store-like booths.

It works great... a little too great. I cut through 2 seperate extension cords today while using it. TWO! When I cut through the second one I blew a fuse in the living room. Now I'm only allowed to use the leaf blower ;-)
