Four years in the place I am at, and my ex used to start things that were never finished. He also hated to get rid of anything. Well, that is all changing. I started by taking (or rather, having my 15 year old son who took it upon himself to do) all the things that were in front of the house that were junking up the place out for bulk pick up. Wow! there is a nice sitting area there now!!! We started two large planters with gardening blocks that have sat empty for the whole 4 years. We even bought 3 hibiscus bushes that are still in their containers that are just set inside the planters! Well, I decided to start with the small one. 6 cubic feet of Miracle Gro landscaping bagged "stuff" (and I need 6 cu. ft. more) and I am on the way to getting the smaller planter filled. I also bought 2 little night blooming jasmines to fill it out. Cant wait to finish (probably tomorrow) well, got 45 minutes of my fitness in for the day (man, is that stuff heavy) and I have put things that were sitting inside the area away or threw them away. Feels good! Well, housework and grocery shopping await. have about 3 1/2 hours before I go to work!
