I Don't Care What Kind Of Grass We Have Planted In The Yard, You Decide

As long as Johnathon has a yard he can play in instead of just dirt, I am happy.

I Don't Care What Kind Of Grass We Have Planted In The Yard, You Decide

Why should it matter the type of grass we have? I honestly do not care, but I am thankful I have such an incredible husband that wants our yard to be perfect and amazing. I don't blame him for wanting the dirt out of the yard, but I don't really care how he does it.

The past two months, my husband has bounced around the idea of putting centipede sod down or starting from seeds. The advantage of sod is it is there immediately, but when going that route it is way more expensive. Seeding is way cheaper, but if you're an impatient person, like my husband is, that can make you feel like it is going to be a lifetime before it is completed. In reality, which my husband now realizes, it only takes three seasons for the grass to fully take over from being planted.

A yard for my son to play in where he won't get extremely muddy is my only request. He is a boy, he is going to get dirty since that is part of growing up. The type of grass doesn't matter. I get that it doesn't need to die after being planted, but seriously pick a type of grass and stick to it.

First it was sod, then seeding, then zoysia grass, and then contractors mix. Then there was talk about sticking to sod. Having grass shouldn't be this difficult.

Seriously babe, I promise, I love everything you are doing for us and with the yard, so I am sorry if I come off the wrong way and get aggravated about it. I just don't see why you worry about it so bad sometimes. I think it is because you want it perfect which is sweet. Grass is grass to me, and it probably always will be. Thank you for taking it seriously. I am glad a lot of the yard has sprouting pieces of centipede all over. When it fully comes in, I know it will look amazing. Thank you.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
