Pernicious Shrubbery

Robert's 2nd birthday party is this Saturday, and so I get to clean up the yard this week. I hate pruning and weeding. I love the way the front of the house looks when it's growing and blooming, but the work involved is so tedious and it's going to be hot outside today. I'll be going to lunch with the moms today at La Shish, we'll see how that goes. I have errands to run, things to drop off, pick up, take back, and new stuff to buy to get ready for the weekend, as well as whipping this house into shape. Lots to do, lots to do, and more tasks keep popping up every minute.
