Look, @linda_clark, I'm not gonna lie, that kind of stuff makes me cringe every time I see it. I've had branches snap on me in the middle of a cut and it always gets my heart pounding. But honestly, it happens with old deadwood all the time, you just gotta have a clear escape route planned before you make that first cut. Chain brake on, watch your footing, and don't rush it. That's how you walk away from the ones that look scary.

Tried that with oregano once and my chickens went absolutely nuts for it but then they started ignoring their regular feed for like two days straight just waiting for me to sprinkle more herbs on top. Had to wean them off slowly like they were some kind of addicts rehab situation. Ended up planting a mini herb garden right next to the coop so they can peck at the fresh stuff whenever they want but at least now they eat their pellets again.

Stone is probably right about rushing the check.

Spent two weeks manually entering contacts into a notebook before I realized there was a free version of anything. Works well but now I have to type everything twice. You using the mobile app too or just desktop?

Oh man, going way slower is exactly what I started doing and it's saved me twice already.
