" I feel drunk with power"

We have been needing to do some serious yard work. I usually do it all myself because Dave just does not have the skills to work in the yard but I had some high branches I just couldn't reach and I thought with Dave's help the work would be cut in half. I was wrong.
I walked through the yard explaining everything that needed to be done going as far as to show which branches I wanted down. While I was mowing I watched Dave cutting and cutting and cutting only to take a break to exchange the clippers for the chainsaw. I thought, where are all these branches coming from? What is he doing? As I drive the mower around the house I was like what the h***? As I was standing there with my mouth agape all Dave could say was "I was drunk with power".....to say the least.

Before, just a little trimming needed, for shaping...



After... All hacked away...I've never even seen my neighbors box truck in his yard..until now.


And, who cuts off all the branches with beautiful green leaves and leaves a trunk with nubs??

I'm beginning to wonder if this was all a ploy not to have to help in the yard any more....
