I just pulled every freaking weed in my yard.

I'm sweating and sunburned and sore, not to mention filthy. I've got two big scraps on my fingers. But those suckers are gone! They are the nasty kind that spread underground so I had to pull really hard to get the wooden root out. I still need to get the Roundup out and hit the few I couldn't get out. We had a very very hard rain here this morning so the ground was nice and soft, otherwise there would be no way I could have gotten this done.

I need a serious shower and a nice reward nap.

1. Weeds are so beautiful.

It's natures way of telling you to get off your ass. :sarcasm:

2. Ouch!

That hurt. But it's about right, even though my dog does a good job of that.

Rainy weather makes good pulling. I just over seeded and need to "weed out" the competition.

The neighbor down the street yells
"Ya looking for nightcrawlers.."
