Second, Chris isn't coming home till Labor Day. His company desperately needs him (like we don't!) as evidenced by his 15-hr/day 7 day weeks. As for me, I'm steamrollering through my projects in anticipation of next Friday's broker's open house. I do NOT even know how I'm doing it. Today I cut down an ailing ficus (need the saw in fact) and potted and planted till dirt was oozing out of my pores. Tonight I tackle the stained grout on the kitchen floor. Yeah, yeah, I should have kept up with it, but I can give you three good reasons why I didn't.
Now on to the pictorial!
Lani - before

My patio plantings - impatiens in the bed here
Impatiens in the trumpet vine bed with a New Guinea Impatiens in the copper pot
A little potted bouquet on the bistro table
A clematis lookalike gracing the far wall. Replaced the poor doomed ficus. A pot of yellow flowers, don't remember the name on a stand.
The front lawn being prepared to receive the sod.
You can see the trench where he planned to install sprinkler lines but I did not snap pics of the pipes being laid down.

The sod called Marathon. A misnomer if you take a look at the sod installed!
Like our patchwork quilt effect. I'm sure the buyers will LOVE it!
Babies!
Babies!
