Truth: Our Yard Is Ridiculous

When I think about our lawn, I die a little inside.  It's in such a sad state, and there is no real hope of that changing any time soon.  Bad pesticide that turned our sod brown in conjunction with the entire back yard not having anything but straw on it is killing me.  In the last 2 months, we've bought a refrigerator, dryer, bed, couch, alarm system, garage door opener, wood blinds, bathroom mirrors, bathroom light fixtures, a chair, a cruise for vacation and...I know I'm forgetting one...oh yeah, a house.  We paid cash for everything except for the house and we are spent.





 It will probably be sometime next year before we do what we really want to with the yard (wraparound deck, landscaping, fence, etc), so until then I will continue to mourn my ugly rose bushes that I didn't want planted in the first place.  We are such bad neighbors! ha I hope the HOA doesn't come after us for being the ugliest yard on the block.

  4. Sign up for Scotts.com newsletter. They give helpful suggestions on what to do when in regards to seasonal fertiling. Although you may need to bring in a full time professional to get things going if the great outdoors arent your forte.
