Last night I made a "to do" list before going to bed. I had a lot of really important things on there like "prepare my lesson" for church tomorrow and "get health insurance." As an afterthought I wrote "mow the lawn" because I knew that I would be home when the lawn was dry. Well ... I mowed the lawn! ... and while passing by a section of the back yard that I have always thought was ugly, I decided to rip out the old plants and put in roses and some ground cover. It took me all day! ... but it looks so much nicer and I think that it will make sitting out on the backyard swing that much more enjoyable.

The trees I ripped out -- that are so much heavier than they look in these pictures

The poor displaced rocks that are always looking for a home

You could always make a circle around the roses with the rocks. That's how I took care of ours. Also, we got our Health Insurance from the internet at Lifewise. good luck. Lana
I can add don't try to tile your bathroom to your saturday to do list!
Sounds like you had quite an adventure! I loved the picture of the 'heavy' bushes!
Saturdays are for fun. Put Kayaking on your list. We do have Lifewise but did not get it off the internet; we got it from an agent. Can you use COBRA from your old job?
The yard looks good, the garden is growing better then mine with fewer weeds...
Just wait!!! ... there is more to come =)!!!!
do you still have those rocks? I'll take them.
I now understand why the East lawn was so long ... you ran out of gas. Energy gas!
