Since we put the addition on the house last year, we've had a rather large pile of dirt in the backyard. To save money we decided instead of hiring a landscape company to fix the backyard (from the construction) we would do it.
My Dear One took on the task last fall. Right about the same time I started the painting. He got half of the construction debris sifted, removing all the rock and several thousand boulders before winter hit. The weather halted the backyard work, and likewise painting stopped too. Funny how that works.
Well, to make a long story short, the Dear One spent most of his free outside work time finishing up this job. And for the past two evenings we have been putting the frosting on the cake. In otherwords, we have been spreading loam and planting grass seed.
We even went a bit overboard by reseeding some of the balder areas in the lawn. I think we have one more evening of spreading and seeding and the outside, except for painting the porch, will be done. It will be so nice to have the yard back in shape again.

At least you get your long overdue tasks done.
Iggy and I still haven't hung all of the artwork in our house -- after more than ten years.
