Countdown is beginning.....

So, here we are Wednesday morning... tomorrow is Christmas Eve and you
know the rest... presents wrapped, check, food prepared, almost check,
house cleaned, not quite check.... yard done....

ah yes... hubby's responsible for yard, better take a look out
the window....

Leaves to the left of me....

Leaves to the right.....OMG!!!!!

Better check the back yard... OK... there appears to be progress here....
we have about a third or so done... good.....


Nooooo not good...wtf is this????? our high vac super duper leaf
sucker upper is in pieces and the tool box is out....
Seems we will be living with the leaves a little longer....

I'm off back to bed.....


Sorry family who are about to come visit.... looks like
we'll be a bit of a mess when  you get here!!!! Hope that's ok and that
you'll come anyway, we love you leaves or no leaves!!!

I have yet to cook, clean and decorate the tree. Want to come help me? I'll give you wine...and snow to cover up the leaves.

Brian Miller said...

Maybe I can hire one of those snow making companies to come and spray crushed ice all over the place, I think they only charge about three grand or so!!!

Now if the leaves were INSIDE then I'd be worried..... ;)

It is about family, not the yard!

Oh Santa you are so wise.. it is about family but when they are trapesing (Brit word) leaves into the house it gets a little old!!!! Thanks to the miracle of modern man they are almost gone now and that's another post for another day!!!

You guys are in need of a major blow job. So are we. But here in Reno, Laura has called in the google weather gods to bring snow so I don't have to look at the leaves.

You could ask your family to help with the leaves?
