Devil, Thy name is bindweed

Still waiting on the carpet. The landlord is going to replace the office and living room carpet. These are the two worst smelling rooms. We should get a call today from the carpet place to set up an installation time. And a contracter will be stopping by to look at replacing the deck.

Michelle and I planted more perrenials in the front, and did more trimming and cleanup. There are moles that keep leaving mounds in the yard, but my greater foe at this point is Bind Weed. You may know it as wild morning glory or creeping jane. There are roots underground (some following the mole tunnels) as big around as my pinky. I’m trying to stop its spread, but its quite a task.
