Yard Work

We did yard work on Sunday the 9th. This is mostly because we couldn't work on finishing the bathroom because of a lack of mirror (Lowe's was out of the size we needed).

We mostly just sucked up the leaves in the energy dissipater (picture below...keep in mind that we need to clean it out again to get in all the nooks and crannies), and chipped the twigs and branches in the yard as well as the pineapple leaves that were laying all over the deck. The chipped items made it to the front yard garden area (which, by the way, is where the Easter Lilies are coming back...I thought I ripped them all out last year...freaking flowers). I'm guessing painting the deck will be the next project on the agenda when the bathroom is done.

Also, the wild flowers seem to be doing well. So well they're starting to take over the yard, in fact. Shawn is not happy about this turn of events, but I pointed out that he should be starting to mow again soon, and therefore he won't have to deal with the plants being in the grass since he'll just mow right over them and they'll die. At least that's the theory.
