yardwork is a provision in my lease.

as much as i love living in the city, i am completely over finding dog shit in the median in front of my house. it can stop any time now.

also, the northwest appears to grow something that my body thinks is ragweed, although the internet says this region doesn't really have a season. the pollen isn't the issue - my siblings and i have a mild contact allergy. i'm still feeling itchy from mowing the lawn.

Roundup is proof that the gods love me and want me to be happy. (if you would like to lecture me about killing weeds with chemicals, you are welcome to come over and pull the dandelions throughout the summer. i will supply you with cold beverages.) hopefully tomorrow i will get time to either work on the flower beds or patch the holes in the back yard.

off to shower and fix the broken plant hook on the front porch for the hanging basket.

Roundup has saved my sanity... and my knees.

Also, I hear you on the dog poop. I have a dog and can readily attest that it is not that difficult to pick up after a dog, so just do it already people! Someone actually thanked me once for picking up my dog's poop because "no one ever does it". Common courtesy is uncommon.

I'd actually recommend the Weed Hound. But me and the Grubbs love it.

After 5 years living with weeding, my hippie wife has allowed me to hire a lawn service to fertilize and weedex the lawn.

Have you found any mole hills yet?
