Yesterday I couldn't stand it any longer so I tackled this odious project
It takes about two hours from start to finish.
The results are worth it, even if I can hardly stand up or walk once the job is done.

The chore
There are not very many things I don't like doing - especially work. Give me a project and I'm happy. However, there is one job that is a chore for me and I just don't enjoy it at all. We are responsible to keep the street in front of our house free of weeds. Yes, it's true and I think it's ridiculous too. The worst part is that our section of the street is cobblestone and the dirt and weeds build up in there almost overnight.

Do you actually hand pick all those weeds? I have sometimes used vinegar and sprayed it on weeds in the cracks. Pouring plain hot boiling water works too. or else the old stand-by which you might not have there...Round-Up (I came from a farm, alright.)
Nicely done, Eileen! I agree, the result is great. It's kind of like moving into a new house. . . .
After seeing you at Hieber's I thought, I wonder what Eileen has been up to lately? Haven't checked the blog for a while. Well, well - this deserves a comment! It doesn't get much more German than pulling weeds along the curb! Way to go. Were my eyes just playing tricks, or did I fail to see Howard on any of those photos?
