Gardening, sort of

What I call gardening is usually killing whatever I don't want. Yesterday, with the temperature in the 60s, I ventured forth to pull up privet, honeysuckle, rogue baby trees, primrose and anything else that looks at me the wrong way.

I also spread the remains of a bag of CrabEx on the front yard...take THAT you rampant henbit. Then in the shady areas I tossed some shade tolerant grass seed under the trees where I have mostly dirt. Then pruning the butterfly bushes, which were also being choked by honeysuckle, and trimming the blackberry plants. Hopefully both of these will show some improvement, not that they were not growing, but I was kind of ignoring them.
