Ah, sorry dcp, I've survived layoffs and not survived layoffs and they are never fun. Good luck.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

How do I find an arborist?
Shine a spotlight to the sky with the symbol of a tree?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm trying to actually decorate my apartment, so I keep buying random prints -- this is the latest: [link] Cute, right?
What I need to do is go through the Scola oeuvre.

Punishingly Intricate
How do I find an arborist? Not just someone to whack some limbs off, I need someone who's trained in taking care of trees. I don't trust "lawn care" people, I want credentials and experience.
I would ask local friends and post on our neighborhood's NextDoor site.

That is cute, Jesse. To go in a breakfast nook? I keep falling in love with art that would be great in my kitchen if only I had open walls.
MY parents have a tree guy they like and trust, but it's a bit far to rec him to you. Maybe Angie's List? (am I thinking of the right name? I get the home repair and political lists confused)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I tried that. All I got was this green dude and I think he was inappropriate with the local deer.

Just in the kitchen more broadly.
I had enough stuff to hang on walls for my previous apartments, but have way more walls now. And I've been in this place 2.5 years! Yikes.

Nice. My kitchen is all cupboards, no walls, which I probably should be grateful for considering it is still not really enough storage space, but I have no place to hang something like that.

Most of my upper cupboards are in the pantry, so there are two good-sized empty walls.

Pantry! Now I'm really jealous.
