Projects

Productive morning all before 8am. Walked out to deadhead the lilies..wandered, picked a few weeds..discovered there was enough rain to loosen up the nut grass balls...pulled a few handfuls in the backyard and they came up so easy I decided to head to the front and pull the HUGE forest of them in the front flowerbed. Mission accomplished. 1/2 a black garbage bag of nutgrass pulled. Noticed lots of little weeds...decided to poison. Grabbed the Roundup and headed out. Poisoned along the front of the house, down the driveway and ALL the way around the property in the front in the road (where road meets the curbed always get clumps of grass and weeds) AND the fence line (just the outside front). Feeling pretty sweaty, but well accomplished. Sitting here debating if I want to hit the inside fence line while I’m sweaty and it’s not too awfully hot...

Ok so renewed energy levels are a GREAT thing!! I opted to NOT do the inside fence but did decide to do some lunch bag overdue painting.


Before


1/2 way after. I will do a blog post with the true before and after when I get there.


After. I need to FIND my before as it was at least a year and a half ago when I bought the lamp to put in the little house. Well it didn’t end up staying in the little house and with kids moving out I find myself wanting a new lamp in one of the guest rooms. So, here we go!!

And some trimming. The wisteria has gone wild!!

Today. After it’s haircut.


Now to clean the leaves!! Sigh. Never done... sitting for a minute before going in to fold three loads of towels and put my laundry in the dryer. Time to move inside for the rest of the day and clean the first room for company next week. And a NAP. Yes, a nap IS in the plans today too :)
