Who's a Garden 'Ho?
I killed the Monza. Ok, no I didn't really but we are currently down to one car and Mark doesn't know what's wrong with her. So if I want or need to go to the store I have to use the power of my feet. It's not so bad when I want to walk to the store but it blows big fat ones when I don't have a choice. I hope we can get her fixed or sort something else before mom gets here. Otherwise Mark is going to be stuck driving us around all week!
Super garden 'ho to the rescue!! I have spent the last 4 days working my butt off (literally) in the garden. There is so much that needs to be dug up, cut down, and trimmed. Some days it is overwhelming! We have developed a priority list of what I need to work on when I get a little free time during the day. Yesterday I had a massive fight with the blackberry bushes in the back yard. We decided to cut down and dig up most of them since they are taking over. I felt like Brier Rabbit. It was horrible and I am all scratched up today. I hope I never see those things in my yard again! I am having to be super careful with the flower beds since my tulips and other spring flowers are making such a show. The tulips are one of my favorite parts of spring here and I can't hurt them! If I can muster up the energy today I am going to start cutting back the hedge between us and our neighbor. He has agreed to go in with us on a wood fence and that we can get rid of the hedge. Hopefully this will put an end to Z's escaping over the fence.
Still studying Danish and job hunting. Today we have to harass the driving instructor about getting me a date for my exam. Ugh stupid system.
At least we finally had temps hit 70 yesterday. And today it should be the same. YAY for warm weather!!!
