Sum Up Sunday // Some Yucky Homeowner Stuff

It's not been very glamourous around here these past few days.  I've been covered in dirt & sweat each morning trying to reach my goal of having a nice yard.  But I don't know how to do that & stay on top of my inside chores.  For example our living room is a hot mess right now because I am too tired to pick anything up.  Also, nothing else has gotten put away that's left over from the move either.  I'm half tempted to just donate it all but then again I've also got boxes intended to donate that haven't gotten there either.  Slowly but surely I'm marking off my spring cleaning list (if you're a newsletter subscriber, you know what I'm talking about!)
Our little herbs!
On another, slightly gross note our shower wasn't draining properly so it's been holding water & just getting really dirty really fast.  I've tried to used Drain-o to get it clear multiple times but Zach mentioned we should just plunge it.  So I took a crack at it & got the grossest hair ball out but that wasn't the only beast below.  Zach tried his hand at it & I don't even want to know what he found but he successfully cleared the clog.  Our tub is so sparkly clean - we also had a problem with our water softener so the tub was also red.  Phew!  Simple things like a clean bathtub can really make someone happy.  Amirite?
Lastly, Zach & I picked up some of the leaves we couldn't stay on top of this past fall.  Like I said, I don't know how people keep a nice home - clean inside & pretty outside. No clue! (this is a hint for tips please! lol)  If it weren't for Zach I think I'd go mad some times.  I got so pissed picking up the leaves. I hate leaves.  It seems like for everyone you pick up there are 6 more.  I don't know how to stay on top of them at all!!

Anyway, it's been a nice productive weekend.  See, I'm staying on top of my flower goal!  Have a great week!

  1. you could convert your lawn into a forest shade garden, and then the leaves become part of the cycle of things like they are supposed to
