 I've done a lot of pain-in-the-ass little things that I needed to do.  :thumbup:

Went to town with my sisters, bought a dress and got my hair done (see below). Great time  :green:


Legs are fucking killing after, knees are the size of fucking watermelons. :zombiefuck:
Excuse the weird pose and posture too, I'm in bed :laugh:

Nice pic, sorry for the discomfort.  But, I love your eyes!!!   :plus:

And a very proud smile for your recent accomplishments.

Looked at my first job relating to damage from the hurricane

The housing agency came up with that policy two years ago. Apparently lots of people neglect their gardens that much that it is a problem, so, now it is in the tenants agreement that we have to keep the gardens well attended. Paving them completely is allowed though.  :zombiefuck:
There is one positive thing to this new policy, people who can't do gardening anymore can now, through the housing company, get help, from kids in a special ed school, who are specialising in maintaining gardens.

Had I done nothing, they would have approved my garden too, it is not a huge mess, but, had not done anything it it but mowing the lawn for a month or so. So, did a bit.

I do have a low maintenance garden, bit of paving to be able to sit outside, even with the wet conditions of this summer. And for the rest have planting that covers the surface, so, not much weeds popping up anyway.

Trimmed the edges of the pavement a bit, pulled some grass and weeds from between the tiles. Clipped the hedge a bit. All looking respectable enough.

Did the front garden Wednesday evening, and the back garden this evening. Should still mow the lawn, but it was too wet today, and yesterday I was not in the mood after six hours of walking in haste to get the mail done.

^ Yeah, folks who pave the whole garden with tiles = very meh (imo). Especially in combination with cheap wooden Gammel® fences. Not my cuppa at all.

Thought about it for a minute and think this housing agency's policy isn't that bad. It can be quite awful looking out of your window and have to look at your neighbour's messy garden all of the time.

Haven't done much myself qua gardening this year. The weather spoiled the fun of it a bit. Did 'harvest' the row of carrots yesterday. Actually used them in mentioned chicken soup. Birds missed picking them from the bird seeds I tossed around in Winter.

Well, cheers to respectable looking gardens, I say.  :)

Washed some laundry by hand since it was raining and I didn't want to go to the washing machine (outside in the laundry room).  Prince Albert hung them in the bathroom to dry.

Lol @ gammel. There even seems to be a beer with that name.

All those completely paved gardens are so harsh, both in feel as in sight. 
Especially on a hot day.
Streets with a lot of paved front-gardens are a lot hotter than a street with hedges and plants.

I'm not a real fan of pristine gardens, but, a garden should show some love from the owner in the way it is.
I've been very lazy myself too this year. Want to change the front garden. Thinking about an apple tree, maybe two. Who knows, if October is mild, I may change the garden completely and get myself those apple trees.
