Yards a mess!

Category: Garden Novice | Posted: Thu May 21, 2009 5:28 am

I've been so busy remodeling the house that I haven't had a chance to keep up with the garden. I have weeds everywhere and many of my plants need trimmed. I feel kind of overwhelmed at the moment as there's so much to do both inside and outside the house. At least my back's doing well. I've been working pretty hard and haven't had any pain just the normal old age stuff. I'll be glad when I'm caught up with the yard so that I can enjoy my garden again.

I know how you feel, I've been there. Good luck with getting on top of everything. Do remember to have a good time when you're working, won't you?

Yes, I know the overwhelmed feeling, too. Our garden hadn't been touched since last summer; what a jungle! Whatever could reseed, did reseed, and the bermuda grass had spread tremendously. Aches and pains later, I vowed never to let the garden get out of control again.
Now my house is out of control, since I've been doing nothing but garden work. It's okay though, already everything is growing beautifully and giving so much pleasure!
Good luck on finishing the remodeling.

Wow, I'm so relieved to hear I'm not the only one to feel this way. I can't seem to have a tidy house and tidy yard at the same time either! Hang in there... and congrats on the remodel and your healthy back.

Hope you'll show us the remodel when you're finished. Take a break now and then and smell the flowers.

I am so glad your back is doing better and has healed nicely. Don't over do it though. And I can't wait to see the pics of your remodel. Your garden will still be there when you have a chance to get to it!!!
