Sunday Evening

I had to pull a tag off of one of my plants because Dru asked me what it was and I didn’t remember.  It’s call “Canadale Gold Wintercreeper“.  They’re all cut back for now while I’m getting ready to add three more rose plants, lay down new groundcloth and then re-mulch the area.  It will fill back in nicely and it adds some really good color to the south side of my place.  They ca grow kinda tall so I cut them back anywho.

My neighbors must have had a good laugh at me this weekend.  Their eyeballs must have jumped out of their heads when they saw me actually cutting the grass after all of these years of having a service do it instead.  And it showed just how long it’s been since I’ve done this myself.  Oh well.  I suppose one gets better with practice.  The lawn tractor cleaned up nice and pretty.

So we have a bill of materials for landscaping things that I have to pick up this week.

• New rose bushes
• Ground cloth staples
• 12 bags of red mulch
• One big bag of TurfBuilder

I have a family thingee next weekend so it doesn’t leave me a lot of time to get this done after work.  Oh yeh.  I need a haircut too.  I’m starting to look like a hippy.
