Yeah, I'm a bit burned out there's no doubt about that. I have a decent balance of work/ r/r +sleep. I do like finishing a job and getting the cash!

Chainsaw mills are dirt cheap.
Live edge, or other cool wood accents onto fences and decks.
Living fences.
Bonsai.
Make kids' stacking blocks from tree-parts...nature-play. You know there are tons of hippie parents that recognize the value. Up-cycled.
I'm going to get in on this, so shhhh!

That's DISCOUNT school supply. Not full-priced or outrageous cost-of-living priced. You've got to have locally-made type of shops in Boulder, right?
