List

This is my list for following my heart:

1.  Research rock gardens.  Work in progress!  Added some items I would to my garden section on Pinterest.  Just don't have time for Pinterest right now with all the other stuff...
2.  Find more ideas for "yard art."  Work in progress!
3.  Wisteria/Trellis.  Work in progress!  Kind of.  Either take it all down or purchase a wood trellis from J.W. Redwood.  Then either have Pacheco help me or do it myself and have someone help with the concrete.  Update:  I still like the trellis at J.W. Redwood but the salesperson was really mean/.  I need to figure it out because the babies pull on the rope and the whole trellis shakes.
4.  Plant sunflower seeds along picket fence/pumpkin patch in front.
5. Work on birdbath/painted rock garden.  Work in progress!
6.  Trap gopher.  He is in the front yard.   My neighbor is trapping things and killing them.  Haven't had any rodent problems since they moved it.
7.  Keep eyes out for free coffee grounds at Starbucks.  Work in progress.  Vons Starbucks by my other   gym is a good place to get them.
8. Reinforce bunny coop with new chicken wire.
9.  Put up laundry line.
10. Starter garden.
11. Flowers in the rest of the garden beds.
12. Plant corn/cucumber.

15.  Get big rock for a special project. Been promised one.
16.  Find a bunch of used tires to use as planters/yard art.  Found some.

22.  Weed around bunny coop and in the small garden bed.

24.  Plant morning glory starters around dead tree and see if they travel up it. Observing now.  Strong and growing!
25.  Start painting dead tree with Oliver.  Work in progress!
26.  Plant sweet pea starters somewhere.  Think about where. I put them along the chain link fence
on my driveway with some morning glory.  Now I need to remember to water them!  Got lazy.
27. Weed pumpkin/zucchini area.
28.  Look for a chair for the steps by the easement. Go to Goodwill or Salvation Army this weekend.  Oops, still working on this idea.

37.  Cut tree branches growing through back fence.
