Goatbusters!
Today I:
Ran 6 miles on the trail with my dog. Hung out at the river with some people (and the dog) for about an hour and a half. Pulled about a dozen ticks off my dog and a couple off myself. Called my mom, talked to her for two hours. Finished the laundry. Spent two hours or so battling the lawn...Chased the cat around the house a couple of times to rescue a baby bunny he had in his mouth. Bunny survived. Did 40 minutes of yoga, took a shower, made Portuguese sausage and potato soup as well as a Portuguese chicken and chickpea dish, prepared lunch for tomorrow, cleaned the kitchen, cleaned the catboxes...All in all, a fairly productive day.
I fought the lawn and the lawn won...Who ya gonna call? Goatbusters! Wait, what?
They're a landscaping service. Basically you pay these people to bring a couple of goats to your property to eat the "undesirable" things, like various vines weeds and brush. I don't think they do clover, but a horse or cow would.....I weeded the clover a couple of weeks ago. It's only been growing a couple of months, but it's entrenched. Even the places I already weeded are starting to grow back over. Ergh. But it was kind of relaxing until the cat ran by with a baby bunny in his mouth.
Boys are home, have to serve dinner now. :)
