I hate yard work

I hate doing yard work.

I've just spent nearly an hour mowing my lawn and laying down compost. I would much rather have spent that time reading or exercising.

Now I have to lay down some pre-emergent herbicide. Then I have to spray some more standard herbicide to kill all the dandelions and ground ivy around my place. Then I have to tend to the compost pile again.

Oh, and I planted some lilies in these oversized pots. I sure hope they turn out well.

I wish I didn't have so much lawn to take care of, and that the previous owner had taken better care of this place. I also wish that my neighbors would take care of their weeds, so as to prevent them from infecting my own lawn. I view this place as an investment, and I'd really like to take care of it.

I need to plant a couple of fruit trees in a couple of weeks. Boy. Ugh.
