I was using Lawnman (not loving the name, lol) to keep the grass fertilized and dandelion free…

have used them for a number of years and they have been excellent…

recently received a letter in the mail advising they’d been taken over by Eco Green…

they called a few days ago to advise they were coming to apply fertilizer and weed control… which they provide as a liquid mix… but the weed control they use will destroy clover…

as we are mixing clover with the grass in the backyard, it means we can’t have this put down as it will kill clover…

the previous company did feeding and weed control as two separate applications…

so I asked about a lower price as they would only be doing the front yard now…

I was advised that I had only being charged for the front yard previously, which was news to me as they had been doing the fertilizing in the backyard all along… not impressed:-(…

so, I guess this will be the last year for that service…

disappointed…

I was disappointed today… plans had been made for weeks to have my middle grandson come and help the oldest prep and lay new carpet on the front steps…

I was up at 7:30… it was overcast, but not wet, and I took some nice photos of various morning glories…

then, it rained (which we needed) for most of the day… didn’t stop until around three… that of course destroyed all of the morning glory flowers🥺…

made me sad as I was looking forward to this project getting finished… it had already been delayed once and we’ve had the carpet and glue all ready for ages…

now we will have to wait for another opportunity to make the carpeting happen, sigh…
