Umm… my front yard is a disastro (shout out to OHSU).

It is crazy and overgrown.

I have big plans.

But unfortunately, things are looking like this.

So, I had the genius idea to hire some schmuck off of craigslist to come pull out all the plants. That didn’t work out so well. He did 1/3 of the work, and left a broken shovel in my concrete planter. Loserfest.

Moving on.

Another issue is that our front door is entirely clear glass. This doesn’t bode well when we’re watching TV in our PJs. Bonus: we have no blinds on all the multitude of windows.

To remedy this, I’d like to put in a privacy screen in front of the porch, to cover the front door.

Examples (all from Houzz):

Also, it is freaking HOTTTT in Texas. It is environmentally uncool to have a lawn. You must xeriscape. Not manscape, but some of you (SC) may need to do that too.

“Thank you very much, I’ll be here all week. Try the cheesecake. It’s delicious. Tip your servers, etc.”

So, my ultimate yard plan looks like this:

Thoughts?

CBO out!
