I am so embarrassed.

Busdriver- well I was trying to set the yard up so that when " I got old" it would be low maintenance. I took out all the grass( except for what is in the first portion of our driveway)’ and planted a kitchen garden and mostly native plants that will eventually I hope only need minimal care. Eventually. If I leave them in place long enough.

Last summer I had some sweet kids helping me in the yard, and this year I could have really have used them ( last year I was mostly doing it to help their wheelchair bound grandmother who was caring for them, plus cause they were good company), but they’ve moved away.

We do have someone that we’ve hired occasionally and he is great, but hiring him would force me to think about what I want done and not change my mind in the middle!
Great idea!
