Yesterday was an absolute bust here on the hill. It was cold and gloomy and rainy and WET WET WET. Even when it wasn't raining, you couldn't get motivated to go out and muck around in the mess. Mom and I did spend over three hours walking both of our yards with ammonia spray and slug sticks trying to make a small dent in our slug invasion. It is still sopping today, but I WILL get outside and get something done... will try to find a dry spot.

This is my back yard yesterday afternoon. Keep in mind that the ugly white pipe is the one that I was trying to get Don to put away for the summer. He ran the trash pump all day on Friday, and several times yesterday, and my creek (that has a 3" drain going under the driveway.... had we only known, it would have been a 8" pipe and life would have been a lot easier!)

It's almost June for cryin out loud! I am supposed to be worried about making sure my sprinkler system works!
