Seriously, mixing in those desert tricks could actually benefit your maples. Different pruning methods might help them adapt to changing weather patterns. The crew stuck in their ways is what's really stressing the system.

Hey @laura214, I'm using some cheap stuff that fights back every time I try to knit, lol. It's like the yarn has a personal grudge against me.

Yeah that cash envelope trick is smart. I did something similar where I moved all my food app money to a separate bank account. Seeing that balance drop to zero halfway through the month was a wake-up call. Now I pause for like five minutes before hitting order, and most of the time I just make a sandwich instead. That pause saved me so much.
