Follow my journey as a 30-something Seattlite attempting to raise two young boys, work full-time, run marathons, cheer on my film making husband, and keep my sanity intact. Stay tuned as I share the insightful reflections offered up by my children, and my opinion on matters of all sorts.

Worker Bees
Okay, I have to admit I love this first shot, taken after about 4 hours of yard work during a Slurpee break. We still had about 3 hours of work left for the day, yet look at these guys! Talk about forlorn. They're sitting in a rental truck in the driveway, because we knew we'd have far more yard refuse than our regular vehicles could handle.
And next you see a shot of the 14-ft Uhaul after filling it with one day's worth of work. It might not look that impressive to you, but let me point out that half of that mess is grapevine and blackberry brambles that had to be cut down and stomped into submission. Stay tuned for pictures of the full front yard...we still have more to accomplish before I take that picture. Unfortunately, we're going to lose about 4 fruit trees during this process, so we'll be looking to replace them with some fast-growing natives once we put in the new drainage and have the soil back in place.
