It's Not That...
There is not a lot to blog about, just not a lot of time. Huge project at work calling for some long hours and a lot of effort. Lots to do at the Lair, both in terms of the lair itself and the yard. A few other things going on as well. So, just saying that things will continue to be sporadic, esp. if we keep getting storms like of late.
Open Letter To The Lawn: There is no need to take the warmth and rain as a challenge, much less an invitation to unbridled growth. If you will see fit not to grow four inches in less than five days, both the lawn mower and myself as its mover, would be most appreciative.

Sounds like my lawn... an inch a day, I swear! It's out to kill me. Like my allergies aren't kicking my a$$ bad enough already.
Ahhh, the lawn, she does grow . . . just got the mower out this weekend to tackle ours!

Posted by: Eric at April 21, 2006 06:33 PMLet me know if that whole "talking to the lawn" thing works... I have some areas around here that could use a good talking to! :)

Also try creeping thyme as a lawn alternative - one of the low-growing varieties. Puts out pretty flowers when it blooms. Needs about half as much mowing as grass (maybe less - depending on varieties).
