Tackle it Tuesday


I want to confess right away that the following is not something I tackled this week. I didn’t tackle much of anything this week so I wanted to post an old tackle. This one took me weeks and weeks of hard labor and it was two years ago. I’m still so proud of it today even tho our lawn has suffered some damage thanks to hurricanes and a broken sprinkler system. But it’s still looking green - close to it anyway. Just a little “crunchy”.This is our yard after 12 months of neglect since buying it (not that it looked all that great when we first bought the place anyway…

And after much labor (I did most of the weed cleanup, my hubby, fil, and I layed down the new sod) - I nearly died of exhaustion that day!

    Visiting a bit late. That was quite a transformation. Wow! I’d be happy about it for years to come too.
