2007 edition of yard work as therapy

[Logan]

Joyce, I've got the sweet gum balls, everywhere, right now, too! At least this year, it wasn't the "bumper crop" that we had last year. I think sweet gum balls are far worse than any pinecone problem I ever experienced.

I spent every possible moment in my yard, this past weekend. My parents drove up and brought me a truck load of plants and I made some headway, getting them in the ground. Plus mowed the front yard, did the weed and feed, watered, raked some beds that had been ignored over the winter, and I weeded, weeded and weeded some more. I have a long way to go, but like you said, it is so therapeutic! Every muscle aches today, but it is a "good" hurt, if there is such a thing.

I hear ya!

Today i took out two Black Curant bushes,What a job the roots nearly killed me.

The family got a laugh,some were easy to pull but i landed on my behind a few times, i also took out this huge bush that was at the side.

Im not a bush kinda gal i hate them infact i love the flowers,Besided the bushes were messy.

I always cut around them the curant bush the berries would fall off on you and stained your clothes!

I have so much work ahead of me and im not looking forward to it!
