First of all, we needed a new mower. So while we were at the store, we also picked up:
A cat statue to put on Fagan's grave (it's been almost a year since he passed, after all, I think it's about time!)
An invisible dog fence for Miss Maggie...I let her out yesterday to potty, and 30 seconds later I get a phone call from our neighbors across the street. Maggie had decided to run out into traffic in order to visit them. *sigh*
Roundup herbicide -- we're killing off the lawn and starting over
Grass seed
Weed and feed
Grub killer
2 large planters
A small planter
A hanging planter
10 begonias
16 pansies
8 petunias
and
2 fuschias
I have spent the afternoon planting to my heart's content. Boe has been spraying herbicide on everything in our yard (I did make sure to cover the lilac bush and the sole remaining rose bush before he started in on the herbicide), and we've been burning handfuls of leaves mixed in with a little bit of firewood. That way we don't get nailed for burning leaves in city limits. A handful at a time is enough to tell anyone who asks that we're using it as tinder. Not nearly as smoky, either.
