I am wiped out.
Raked up lots of dead grass and weeds, piled it all in the compost bin. Because of so many weeds, going to have to find a way to retain heat to kill off the seeds. Think I'll apply a whole bunch of ammonia, cover with a couple layers of black plastic and some scrap wood for a few weeks.
Still a battle with the dogs. Youngest female turned out the battery was no good, so she was still getting in the garden. Doesn't look like she did any damage. The oldest male, however has managed on several occasions to shake his unit off his collar. He got into the garden and dug up the dead puppy I buried almost two weeks ago..and tried to eat part of it. That was all kinds of fun to deal with. His unit is now duct taped to prevent more issues like that.
Last evening, planted potatoes and more carrot seeds. A lot more carrot seeds.
Things are looking pretty decent. Lot of work left to do. Still, I think I should have both back and front yards in decent enough condition again to not be ashamed to post pictures. Maybe even be proud of it!
