The spurge is taking over the front lawn and it looks terrible.
I have purchased weed and feed and will start the process tomorrow.
Two weeks off and we did work for two hours this morning and will both be so sore again!
We just have to keep at this every day, and the days are so hot. We are not starting early enough in the morning and must rework our normal routines if we want to make progress.
Trust me I felt like this the first week we started (April 1st) and have made great progress, but today just seemed daunting.
I have only heard from Sissy once and that was for her to ask me to go and greet a client who did not pick up product before Sis left. I know she is having a great time, and I miss her.
WE left her dog Roscoe with my baby Sister while we were away, it was only for a very short time and the cats did fine without us. If we are only gone two nights they hang with dry food and plenty of water. The beauty of Cat ownership. Now if they were very old this would not happen.
We both had a very good time with my Girlfriend, and she really loved our little house. We returned her to Missoula when went back for Husbands Uncles memorial. This was very nice, and we saw people that we had not seen since we got married 41 years ago. Husbands Aunt was so glad to see us as well as his cousins which are scattered all over the USA. It was a very short trip and that just made the drive seem longer.
Got home Sunday evening and unpacked and collapsed. We got rain yesterday which we need so badly so yard work was out.
I planned our meals for the week and did a small grocery shop, and I swear prices continue to rise. Damn scary if you ask me. Now we can eat out of the freezer, but it must be replenished at some time.
Sissy's garden is thriving. and Husb went up last night and picked two zucchini and eleven tomatoes.
I am making a zucchini gratin for dinner with sirloin steaks.
I must also give myself a manicure this afternoon as my fingers are a wreck.
Now it is time for me to go and clean up and get to the manicure and then I have some ironing to do!
Hope everyone is doing well!
Hugs,
Kay
You e got a good team. I'm not yard proud. If it's neat, mowed, a few flowers for color, I'm calling it good. I just would rather do other things I've determined. My attempt at garden produce was a bust, but daughter having success and she shares.
ReplyDeleteTommy has finally said I can have flowers and trees and shrubs in the yard, but the fall is the best time to plant trees. Hosta never die for good, not that I have seen. If something eats them, they still come back. But, some hate the full sun. I wish I had somewhere to go and pick tomatoes and zucchini.
