Misadventures of the 10lees

Everybody's Weeding for the Weekend

This weekend we drove down to Oregon for a the weekend, to see Scott's family for Father's Day and his dad's birthday. It was fun, although not as relaxing as one might wish for the weekend.

We got back late last night, and it was nice to wake up Sunday here. I got a lot done, specifically an hour and a half of solid weeding. Then I put down some preen on the areas I weeded, because I'm sick of weeding. I also replanted three of my four pots that are on the walkway up to my house. I wanted more pansies (which were destroyed, presumably by a cat), but apparently it isn't the season for them anymore. So now I have two pots of Gerbera daisys, a Geranium, and a few Petunias. Maybe I'll take a picture someday...

I still have tons of work to do. Apparently it's a lot to ask of my plants to STOP GROWING until I catch up with trimming them.

Our neighbors are selling their house and I thought about putting the link to their house on here, but I don't really want to give away where I live. If you want to see the house email me and I'll send you the link. They are asking a very reasonable price, the only bad thing is that they told us about eight weeks ago that they were replacing the fence between our properties. We, being good neighbors, offered to pay for the half of the fence between our two properties and they accepted. Now if you were planning to sell your house wouldn't you let your neighbors know that 'hey, we're preparing to sell, so we'll recoop that money'?? I would, because it's not polite to take your neighbors money when you are planning on leaving. And don't tell us they can't afford it, they will be making DOUBLE what they paid for the house 10 years ago if they get their asking price.

Other than that, things are pretty calm here.
