Hmm.. If she's got Sharkey, he's fairly safe.
No danger of dryin' out since she's got waterfront available to keep him in.
Catpuppy.. Hmm..

Where the cherry......
It was nice to get out. Sprained my wrist. Don't even remember how I did it. Hurt like heck though. You'd think I'd remember.
What are you looking at??
Goodnight all, have a good one..

Hope you don't have to use it too much so it can heal!
Good to use one of those healing balms they help with circulation to speed up the process.....
It dawned on me this morning that the advice I gave you about the Roundup weed killer may not be what you are looking for. It will kill all the weeds including grasses. I was thinking about it because we're doing a lawn replacement so I WANT to kill everything. If you want to kill weeds in your lawn, you'll need to look at another product that will leave the lawn grass intact. D'oh.
Oh. Well, if my yard wasn't so big and I actually had more time to work on it myself, I would consider doing that, but as it is, I would just be happy to get rid of the weeds and start some new grass.
You hate spiders, therefor you use them as sentries in the hedges?
Makes twisted sense to me.
Our "lawn" isn't very big - lots here are a bit small because of the price of land. The back yard consists of a garden patch that's about 25' x 25', and to the left of the that is a weed patch that gets mowed. The previous owners did absolutely nothing to take care of the yard, so we've been working at it since we've moved in. We've taken out a lot of overgrown shrubs that were along the fences on three sides, chopped out a bamboo hedge that was in the front along the house (there was even bamboo growing under the house), taken out a couple of trees that were just a couple of feet from the north wall of the house (unbelievable) and in general been doing cleanup. We've done some rudementary landscaping in the front, and I'm ready to start on the south side yard. These are expensive homes in this neighborhood (well, everything's expensive here, but these are nice, well-kept homes, with a couple of exception) and we don't our place to look like some trash has moved in.
LOL!
That look DOES say "What are you looking at".
Neat pic, thanks!
It takes a lot of work to keep a yard looking nice. I had a very small yard in Colorado, but it took an incredible amount of time keeping it up the way I wanted it.. Here, I don't even begin to have the time I need to do much with the yard, although I have so much to work with, it has a lot of potential. Mostly, I've had to pay somebody else to help me just keep it cleaned up, and no one else will ever do it the way I would do it myself. It's very frustrating.
We've had someone who is supposed to keep it somewhat clean up, but he's been doing a miserable job. When I've met with him to show him what I want, he smiles and nods, says OK, but when I get back, it's never what I asked, and it's usually not complete. Sooo, I have to call him to come back and finish. I'm calling him today to tell him we don't need his "services" anymore. Hubby and I have been out in the yard weed-wacking and cleaning up stuff he should have been doing.
Yeah, I know what you mean. I paid these two guys a small fortune to come out to weedeat, rake and get rid of the ton of leaves I had back in the fall. All they did was pile them up with a leaf blower and run over the yard with a mower and shred them up and left them there....along with about a zillion acorn hulls, so it's all still there, so now I'm going to have to pay somebody else to come do it. Doesn't anybody know how to operate a rake anymore?
