You are my HERO!! Good job. I need to get myself in gear and do the same. It's that ole' giving away things that I paid $$ for issue.

Way to go, ronbre! Think of all the people you have helped out today, besides giving yourself some breathing room.

RE: bags and bags and bags

I have to tell you that the bags I got rid of this past week were not for charity. I finally took my bags of garden refuse to the collection center in town - 2 bags from my patio, 1 from under the picnic table, 1 from next to the "fish pond", a box of sticks from under the pine tree, and a large garbage can of sticks that's been sitting next to the deck for 2 years. I feel so cleaned out, but I know this is the kind of thing that doesn't end! More sticks coming from the next wind storm.

But it certainly gave me a great deal of satisfaction. When it rains I'll work on the inside of the house.

yes, i agree, i had a bale of mulch sitting on my gazebo deck..got that spread and the grapevine leaves raked off the gazebo too..so i understand about the yard mess..even got most of the back yard raked too..so that is nearly all done..
