Well, I hate the dentist too!

By the way, I hate to see so many war over there in the third world all the time! My grandpa told me they always do fight the war since Jesus was born!

I hate weedwacker string.

My solution is to pay someone else to do it, or plant a yard that is made up of drought resistant, native plants.

Or a yard full of rocks and cacti.

Forest Fires that consume +607 square miles of land.... and rain ash and soot for miles around. AND, to make matters worse, there's no rain in the forecast for several weeks.

... nature does its own controlled burns, it seems.

Forest fire all around in NC.... it's spreading fire smoking around me!

I hate poison Ivy, I have it everywhere, Yuck!!!

My older brother had a problem with it inhis back yard, so he bought himself two or three fo the biggest containors of Round-Up he could find, and sprayed it all down. It got rid of the poisen ivy. Unfortunately it also killed every other plant in the area where he spraid, as well, including two young trees that his wife planted for shade.

I had use an EpiPen and then got lots of Prednisone from the doctor!! Crazy stuff!! I guess no more yard work for me, Awww!!!

I don't remember if it was Round-up or something else I got at K-Mart, but I sprayed it directly on the leaves of the poison ivy, and it killed the plant down to the roots. I was careful not to spray it on everything else, although whatever I used wouldn't have affected shrubbery, just leafy plants like flowers or good vines, you know. That spray poison ivy killer is really good stuff, but you do have to be very specific where you pray it. Just wet the leaves of the plant you want dead.

We have had temps above 90 every single day this June. One day got up to 101 in Murfreesboro, where I live. If you must do yard work in weather like that, you need to leave it for the later evening and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate. I did mow my backyard last Saturday evening. No way would I have done that at the peak of the temperature, though.
