Then I need to finish picking up sticks....and raking yard . i need to put some grass seed patch down and then fertilize the rest of grass...

We have had no landscaping in the front of our yard . I plan on doing that too... I cant afford to pay someone to do it but I'm not helpless...

My new motto for myself is...if you want something done...get off your butt and do it... I HATE to excercise but this will be a good workout for me.
