Clean House

After a nine month hiatus to get my finances in order, I rehired my cleaning service. They came yesterday, and boy, did they put the spit-shine on the house. I had been doing a stellar job (if I say so myself) of keeping the house tidy during that time. But to have that professional touch added; it’s marvelous.

My next area to get under control is the terrace in the front yard. I did well with adding perennials last year, and keeping it mostly tidy. But I need to up my game this year. I’ve been putting aside the general clean-up of the terrace because I keep seeing these posts about all the beneficial bugs I’ll be throwing out if I do the clean up.

Well, it’s almost Memorial Day, and in Minnesota that means it’s time to get your summer act together. If the bees, butterflies, and moths haven’t woken up from winter hibernation by now, they never will. Time to get cracking on that terrace while I have some more moderate temperatures in the next couple of days.
