Uh,
No.
Not that kind of grass.
I swear, you people....
My yard has been looking like CRAP. I hate doing yard work. I like to leave the yard work to the guys. My dad did make us cut the grass when we were younger but now that I'm a parent/spouse, I like to leave it to the men in the family.
Also, this heat has been killer. It's been in the 100s for weeks straight. Nothing is growing around here. Good thing these orange groves have good irrigation.
ANYWAY, back to the point.
My yard is dreadful. The dogs have trampled it to hell.
Angel and I decided to isolate a part of the yard (which means install a fence, ughhh) so that we can actually try to grow some grass and have a decent place to sit outside. One of the main reasons for isolation?
DOG SHIT!
Dom's job is to pick up the poop everyday (since he doesn't do anything all day) and make sure the yard looks presentable.
NOPE!
It's like trying to avoid land mines out there. I guess one of the pros about this heat (and believe me, there aren't many) is that when the shit is on the ground, the sun automatically dries it up and turns it into that white powdery looking shit.
Cool.
Now it'll just blow right off the bottom of my shoe with a gust of wind instead of sticking on it in a mushy, stinky....well, you get the point.
Today is yard work day. We went to Home Depot yesterday and got a new water hose, 2 sprinklers, some grass seeds, fertilizer (we don't even know if it's the right type) a seed spreader, a metal rake and Reese"s Peanut Butter Cups <----his. We're going to see if we can grow some grass.
This is what the yard looks like now (remember, this is only PART of the yard, one side of the house).
