Jim asked me how the name 'Champion Chores' was created. I really didn't have an answer that made much sense, but it went something like this: I had this picture book I wanted feedback on (see previous posts) and the only way to share it was through a blog....hence- Creation! I asked Mike (see previous posts why he was here) what I should name it- perhaps Trueblood Duo? He mentioned something about Champion...... and I quickly decided on Champion Chores. I was under a time pressure to make it to a lunch meeting (see previous posts). And besides, one of my talents in life is my ability to do chores. I'm not a visionary, people manager, or organizational development specialist.....rather a 'Chorer'. Need a car seat installed, call me. Need a ride to the airport, I'm there. Need your bushes trimmed, I'm all over it. Which brings me to my next post.
Anne and Corey moved into their home last year. Since that time they have repainted, recarpeted, changed out all the door hardware and had a new baby, gotten new jobs, and started graduate school and finished a PHD. Whoooo! That tires me out just writing it. Their bushes have been low on their priority list. I coincidentially got a new pair of pruning shears. The gloves are old, but they wanted to be in the picture, too.
My new shears made it over to Anne and Corey's and this is the result:

The Chore was completed and the toter was full. Note my pink bike- it's awesome!
Do you travel? We could use a landscaper too. And a dog walker.
