Okay, due in part to the beautiful weather we are having here in Colorado today I decided to blog a blip about yard work.
Now we are not complete strangers to yard work, since we did rent a home last year, but a person can easily forget just how much work it takes.
We do not have out yard in as of yet, but that is the major plan this summer!
I did get my bootie outside this morning to try to maintain some of the grass/weedlands that have taken over the back and sides of my house. I was out there with shovel in hand digging up the weeds. Now I know most of you have 2 words in mind - ROUND-UP!!
Yes that was the intial plan, but due to the vast amount of weeds I decided to tackle them with the shovel first, and follow up with weed killer for 2 dumb reasons: 1- to get some amount of exercise (yes, a super lame excuse) and 2- I needed the sunshine!! I just love the sunshine!
So the plan is to add an uncovered deck to our patio, and get the backyard and fence in by the end of this summer. We will keep things updated as they happen, so be sure to check back!!
Enjoy the sun and weeding. I do it all the time. Never a bad idea to get out and get some fresh air. A great summer to look foward too.
