Yard work.

I've been spending my evenings this past week attempting to clean and fix up my backyard. Jenny really destroyed it over the winter. Well, maybe I shouldn't have let her run free... and maybe I should have been better about cleaning up after her too. Whatever it was, the yard was a disaster. I'm attempting to re-grow grass and I've finally finished laying down bark mulch. I used 12 bags. I re-laid the brick borders around the garden areas too. I've also been working on a small brick patio. I started at the end of last fall and didn't finish it. Tonight I tore it all apart trying to get it more level, but it's still a little off. I'll put a couple of chairs and some potted plants on it. I'm really just trying to pretty-up the place so it will be nice for re-sale.

So that's what I've been doing with my evenings after work. The weather has been so nice I didn't want to pass up the opportunity. Jenny has been enjoying the exercise too. Tonight she pulled another psycho-crazy thing when she saw a Beagle while we were out for a walk. But I just held her back and eventually the little beagle came over. They became best friends. His name was Toby. They sniffed each other and then peed in the same spot. I think they might be engaged now.
