Or shovel if you have been doing yard work or gardening.
Started de- winterizing ( my termš) the garden. It needs a lot of work but I have been stalling. 2 of the grands are spending next week with us and they want to help. I did plant 4 butterfly bushes.

I do not enjoy gardening, but there are many places that need to be cleaned up, so I guess Iāll have to do some. Our yard and gardens have been taken over by an invasive weed. It flowers at this time in southeastern Pennsylvania. It has yellow flowers and heart shaped leaves. You canāt even dig it up because it has loads of tiny bulb-like things under the surface. I havenāt figured out how to deal with it yet. Sigh!

I spent about four hours today picking up sticks, raking and cleaning up the flower gardens. Not my favorite things to do but needed to be done.

We don't have a spring clean up. DH has been watering like crazy because of dry weather and new sod installed in the back. Weeds grow continually. Worse in summer but still a pain. DH replaced mulch with rock several years ago. He thought it would cut down on weeds. I think it made it worse.
He goes fishing and tells me to pull weeds. Hmmmm.....
We have one large flower bed that needs a major clean out. It's mostly sand, which definitely makes it easier to clean. I just haven't been moved to work on it. Same can be said with mopping kitchen floor...

Maybe try sand on the kitchen floor since it worked well on the flower bedš
