West Fence Line!

 

The above photos are from early fall when I had

cut the hostas down.

Here is what it looks like today, 11/19/2025

I have been working hard to prepare and cleanup

the yard for winter!  

Getting Ready For Winter

 

Before photo:

After:

I spent all day outside cleaning up 

along the north fence line.  Stripping

plants leaves and cleaning up the 

leaves that come out of the north

tree.  While vacing up at 4 pm the

smell of smoke was strong.  I finished

and went in as again no one should have

to smell firepit smoke!  Funny how fast 

it stopped!

Still a lot to strip and cleanup.

As of today we have taken 3-64 gallon

bins of leaves off our property of mulched

leaves that have blown into our yard. They 

are a mix of leaves and evergreens so the 

county's leaf coupon isn't helping us due 

to they only want leaves no evergreen mix.

No we will not compost these, to acidy.

Hopefully after our bins will be emptied

on Monday we can start on ours that need

to fill our bins.  We have 3 cans for our stuff

full already.

As of today we have now taken 5-64 gallon 

yard debris bins off our yard.  Yesterday was

my day to vac the whole yard again to clean

all the leaves that have blown in from the last

east winds.

 Will go down as another step on the path 

of life.  Surgery went well and we now know

just how bad my heart is from all the stress. 

Walk a mile in my shoes before you

lie about me!

I can't wait to talk about this journey!

2025 Time To Put Halloween Away

 Sort of

It has been suggested I use the 

Ghost Girl as the Ghost of Christmas

past?

Left my smaller Skelly in the

cement pot out with red lights

and the bee arbor with the blue

lights.  

I want to thank the Dad that 

brought his daughter trick or

treating last night.  Glad they 

love how we decorated!

It was a 4 vac bag day plus one

dead raccoon!  It just took 2 hours to 

bag it all up.

I was asked why I vac up every day?

Keeping the property free of mold is the

key here.  If you have allergies to mold

you would understand.  Also while doing

so I can get seeds and those bugs vac to 

save from having to spray! This past year

we have had to use 4 bottles of Round up.

Yes, that many weeds and we have never

had this many weeds.  You can watch these

seeds float all over the neighborhood due to 

neighbors that don't care for their yards.

  

Another Storm Headed Our Way!

 More leaves!  Wind and wet!

Got To Love Her Blooms

 

Isn't she just breath taking!
