I came home from bringing my daughter to an extracurricular to find a big pile of grass in the backyard. My wife said that she was trying to pull out some of the Ground Ivy that has been plaguing our yard and garden over the last few years and found that the sod just started coming up like a carpet, so she went with it. We spent the rest of the daylight hours as a family ripping up the whole damn backyard.

We still aren’t quite sure what we are going to put back there but at least this part is out of the way. I’m excited to see what we are going to do with it now.

Hoping we can knock out the rest of the Ground Ivy from the garden so it stops trying to choke everything else out.

This posters wife is probably not a methhead, but it totally is. That said, I recently couldn’t find a document and cleaned my entire apartment because of it, so I can’t talk.
