Yard Work Is Fun!

I went out onto the patio this morning with coffee in hand and a mission in mind. I'm going to weed the garden area and I'm going to do the whole thing no matter how intimidating the mass of weeds are. And trust me, there are a lot of those weeds.

I started at the side of the house were I want to plant some bulbs for next spring. These funny little weeds have been growing for quite sometime now. There was mostly one kind and they have cute little flowers that turn into these dark bluish purplish berries. I smashed a lot of the berries in my gloves trying to pull those suckers out. And apparently that area is the place to be for a spider because I saw about fifty of them and I'm not exaggerating. I do feel a little bad for tearing apart their sweet little area, but it had to be done for the greater good (ha ha ha).
After that I needed to change out of my slippers and long sleeve shirt plus scarf. I didn't really want to get my slippers all dirty and I was starting to get a bit warm. Plus I had to put a belt on to save anyone watching from seeing my butt-crack. Sorry neighbors bending over a bunch tends to pull my pants down a little.

Then I cleared the garden beds and some of the area near the fence that appeared to be missed throughout the random other weeding I've done since moving here. As I should have expected, I had a slight allergic reaction to something I pulled up, my skin was stinging and getting red blotches. I was wearing gloves, but with my skin, I should know that is usually bound to happen.

And a last note about weeding, some of the those damn things have roots that are practically impossible to rip out of the ground! Seriously eight inches deep and an inch thick. Although a failed attempt, I tried to employ my roommates dog, Dagny, to dig up the suckers for me. She just looked at me like "You have the shovel, you do it" and then went to chew on a stick.

Now It's time to head to the store and get me some bulbs, but I may wait to do that until tomorrow :)

Let Me Introduce Myself A Little

Yeah yeah, great way to start of my blog, with a Questionnaire! Well here it goes!

Where were you last night? 

In my awesome house, sleeping most likely.

What is today's date? 

Monday October 11th, 2010

When you're at the grocery store do you use the self checkout? 

Self check out, I'm way quicker. Most of the time I only have like 3 items.

Has anyone ever sang to you? 

A few people have, but I also know a few people who have outstanding voices.

If you were abandoned in the wilderness, would you survive? 

Of course, I'm Bear Grills long lost twin sister! (although I find him really attractive so that's a little weird) 

Lets just say I've spent a good amount of time surviving in the wilderness.

Who do you text the most? 

Umm, Johnny, Max, Adrienne. But then they are like the only people that I text. haha.

 
How do you make your money?

Hm... let me check. Johnny.

What color are your eyes?

Technically "Amber". So that means green, brown, and golden (not to be mistaken with hazel).(My eyeballs)

That I have pretty eyes (see above) and a pretty smile. That's a pretty good top two I think :)

How tall are you?

who was the last person to say they loved you and when? 

ADRIENNE! When I saw her last weekend. (But actually maybe my mom was the last one when i saw her yesterday, don't remember...)

Do you like your parents? 

I love my parents. My mom is so awesome and such a great mother! I'll admit when I was a teenager it was difficult to appreciate her, but ya know, that what being a teenager is all about. But my mom is so important to me and has been a great mother not only to me and my siblings but also to my best friend Adrienne.

Either Adrienne or my sister Max.

Where is the furthest place you've traveled? 

Japan! Alabama is pretty far to, but I'm sure Japan is much farther.

Which do you prefer, to eat or sleep? 

Sleep, eating is kinda a pain in the ass sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I like food, but sleeping is much more comfortable and takes a lot less work.

Do you look more like your mom or your dad? 

I dunno, when I was younger everyone said I looked just like my mom. But recently someone said I look more like my dad...

How long does it take you to shower? 

Depends: If it's cold, maybe a half hour just to be warm. It not, maybe 15 mins. Unless I shave, then give me about 5 more minutes.

Somewhat. Can't do the split anymore, but I can still touch the ground with flat hands bending over with my legs strait.

What did you do on New Years Eve? 

I don't even remember XD

Was your mom there? 

No. Haha, I can remember that.

Not really. I know a very minimal about of Spanish and I probably sound terrible. I can say stuff like; "I have a table of (number) people" and "you want ice?" and "how are you? I'm good? and you?". Thanks cooks at Elmer's for the Spanish lessons.
