All I wanted to do yesterday was plant the 120 gladiolas that I bought, and maybe temporarily place the two citrus trees that I bought. I started digging up about a foot long section of lawn along the back fence. My plan was to dig up just enough of the lawn to fit the gladiolas and that was it. I wasn’t going to take on too much and commit to too much. After twenty minutes of fighting with two feet of lawn, I said NOPE! I then asked hubby to rent a sod cutter and cut the whole lawn out. Two hours later I am left with a mud pit, a pile of lawn in the side yard, and a big fat clock ticking away the 9 weeks until Easter. Now I will say, there is a good chance I will be asking you guys for some advice, so whether you like it or not, I am dragging you all along for the ride. As you can see from the pictures below I had just mowed the lawn. It looks nice, but it’s actually a swampy mess and very boring. The last picture is my new and improved mud pit!

Family Matters : DiCarlo Brides book 4
by Heather Tullis
(115 Reviews)
Genre: Romance
FREE for a limited time
Rosemary is determined to make it through a year in Juniper Ridge without forming any ties there. Harrison is determined to change her mind.
Rosemary Keogh considers herself pretty adaptable — she dealt with her father’s death-bed edict that she move across the country to work at his latest hotel. She hadn’t bitten the head off of any of her five unexpected half-sisters, had she? And she’s been pleasant about it. Mostly. She settled into the routine, even grew to like most of them, but when tragedy leaves her birth daughter parentless — and she is named guardian — her world spins again. Trying to raise a nine-year-old who shares her spunk and determination isn’t always an easy thing.
Adding to the confusion, Harrison Forest, head of the resort’s human resources department, decides it’s time to shift their relationship from semi-adversarial to something a whole lot more pleasant. They had briefly met years earlier, and though they had started off on the wrong foot, he hadn’t been able to forget her.
When Rosemary starts having mysterious ‘accidents,’ though, her worries shift from being a bad mother to leaving her daughter an orphan yet again. Can they get past the roadblocks she’s been throwing between herself and Harrison to make things work? More importantly, will she survive that long?
