Ok, this week I decided that I want a luscious green yard and that I am going to follow my friend Lisa's tips. I went and bought the Scott's fertilizer for fall. I poured it into the Scott's spreader. I read the directions 3 times. I felt confident at this point. My spreader has a flower guard on it . Well, the stuff was flying out everywhere and the guard was always on the wrong side. I just know my yard will be jacked up and my flowers and bushes will be dead. Good thing they are going to die soon anyway. The grass will probably be real green in spots and dead in others. I tried to follow the tracks of where I had been. I turn 40 in December and my eyes are not what they used to be. I guess I will wait and see. I really needed Tootsie to help me with some straight lines. Tootsie's yard always looks like a golf course and I want mine to look that way too.
I have hired professionals before but they never did it to my satisfaction. I actually caught them spraying the front and not the back...little stinkers. I rely wanted to show my husband that I could do it. I guess time will tell.

Well I hope it turns out radiant green and looks JUST like Tootsie's beautiful yard! And think of the satisfaction you'll get knowing you did it yourself!
It can't be worse than my yard this year! I think Tootsie should just visit us each one-on-one and help us get started! She is amazing. Your yard will probably look better than you think when it starts to have the fertilizer work. :)
You'll be surprised! It'll turn out beautiful! You'll see.
You asked me about dental assisting - I better not tell you about it this week...I got home late every night last week and so far this week....LOL Robyn
