As you may or may not know, a couple of weeks ago, Southern California got dumped on. I was going to write about the myriad of rain related problems we had here. But, it seemed so trivial, compared to the people who lost their lives and homes in the La Conchita mudslides.
Anyway, since I have been so busy with work and all, I have been neglecting the backyard. And, the rain gave the weeds much needed water. So, they have taken over the yard. It looks like a jungle out there. Tools that I couldn't find, turned out to be caught in the overgrown crab grass out there. I just spent part of this morning, dumping water out of any containers, to deter mosquitos. And, using Round-Up on some of the weeds that were peeking up throughout the paths out there. I just ran out, and need to go to the store and get some more.
After a small break, I am going to tackle the front lawn. It's a nice day to be working outside though.
