OK, I can't mark it off the list, but I feel pretty good about it...

I decided about 8:00pm to stop fiddle fartin' around and get outside to get something done.  I gathered up Dollie and her water bowl ... and headed to the front yard.  I tethered her to the 30 foot lead I use for just such occasion.  I then got the wheel barrel and clippers from the back yard and made my way to the front planting bed.

Because I live across the street from the Griswald's and Mister Weedy Yard, I have these hideous weeds all over the place that just pop up over night and take over every thing.  Not quite Kudzu, but close.  It's like Kudzu-lite.  They are viney and grow really fast... And I actually hate them.  I have already cleaned out this bed in early May.  I just haven't been able to pull the trailer out to get a bulk load of mulch from the nursery.  So the bed has been taken over by them dirty bastard weeds!

And the Crape Myrtle tree needed trimming.

So I took care of both things and loaded all the clippings and weeds into the wheel barrel.  Which got wheeled to the back yard when I filled it up to the brim.

I came in around 9:30.  I was having trouble seeing because it was getting pretty dark.

Maybe I'll get up early on Saturday and pick up a load of Mulch and just get that done.

Or not.
