CLEAN IT UP

Whenever I start to see piles of trash and garden refuse in our neighbors yards I assume it's time for the bulk garbage pickup.  That's how the weekend began, with a "clean it up" attitude.

Since I can't lift heavy things I engaged the help of the eldest grandson. To complicate matters and save some money, we needed to bring home all boxes from the storage unit I rented when the garage door was replaced some months ago. 

My husband reduced the overgrown shrubs from 6 ft. to 3 ft. and we've been hoping no one thought we are preparing for a bonfire. 

I almost lost the family dog by having all doors propped open while moving things about.  He decided to take a walk about the neighborhood.  Before we even missed him "pet finder" called and I am so thankful. 

Thanks to our grandson, I can almost get the car back into the garage.  A pile must go to donation and the other pile goes to trash.  I'll sweep and be done.  But....

There are many, many more things to attend to but now we are hampered by the heat, heat, heat.  I needed many breaks during the weekend because the heat just wears and tears me down. 

On one break I worked on a photo of a finch balanced on the edge of cactus needles, this version made me think of how hot, hot, hot I was.
