I'm an Idiot

for even attempting.
As long as we are learning we will make mistakes.
We are not machines.

 

No problem Op. I took a shock off a sparkplug once tuning a car by "sound". The shock made me bolt up so fast, I then hit my head on the hood and almost knocked myself out. Fortunately no neighbors witnessed the sorry spectacle.

 

Whats more impressive is how you fit 60 bags of mulch! I currently have 30 sitting in the bed of my truck and the poor thing is just about sitting on the bump stops!

 

This trip was 20. The whole job was 60.

 

Thanks for clearing that up lol I was wondering how she fit that many bags without it being stacked 15 feet high!

 

Wow, I thought you were going to say the truck rolled down the hill.
Just laugh it off, it happens.

 

Wow!Take care of yourself!Be proud of your efforts!Your workin it!

 

Don't worry about it. I had my Uncle slide out of my truck one time. He was pissed off and threw a good punch. It was his fault, but I still have a dent between my eyebrows. At least mulch doesn't KO you.

 

Just in case anyone was wondering, I finished all the bags of mulch without anymore drama! The young man that helped me clean up the mess I made came back and helped me finish moving all the bags (plus a few more I had to buy) and he even put the weeds I cleaned out in his truck to throw away. I kinda feel bad because he wouldn't take any money . The yard looks beautiful and I'm very greatful and happy. Thank you for all of you thoughts and comments. I learn something from all of them.

Sorry for bothering you with my silly life but when you feel alone this place feels like friends and company . I'm even learning to love my husbands Tacoma!

Happy Memorial Day

 

I have a vaulted ceiling and figured I'd go cut a really tall Christmas tree one year. Long story short, I drove a long way home then a long way back only to find it in the middle of the highway not far from where I cut it. I figured it was heavy enough to stay put. When I found the tree, it was well after dark and it had been run over so many times that it was a ragged stick in the road (75 mph road)

 

Happy to hear you got all the mulch set out. Now of the yard

 

Happy Memorial Day!!

Congrats on getting the job done and BZ to the young man who helped and wouldn't accept payment. It is good to hear that there are still a few respectful young men out there.

Never apologize for reaching out. As I mentioned before I have an enormous amount of respect for the spouses of military men and women. Dont feel alone, there are always people out there to reach out too, of course, including TW

Take Care!!

 

Hi ImpulseRed008,
My husband worries about pictures compromising our security and doesn't like me to post them. Here's a couple that I think would be okay. I can't show other flower beds cause you could see our house and the houses around us. Sorry

This is the stupid hill!

 

Very pretty yard. Can tell you guys have done a lot of work on it.

 

For what it's worth, it's much cheaper to get mulch and dirt in bulk.
This amount of topsoil/compost mix ^^ was only 25 dollars. That amount in bags from Home Depot would've been over $200. Just keep it in mind for next time.

Also, use a tarp between the load and your bed, it makes cleaning it soo much easier, and you can get ALL of the dirt/mulch out so you can really get your money's worth.

 

Thank you ImpulseRed008 . It was a lot of work to get it this way and we like to work together in the yard. One day it will be for our own home. I'm just trying to keep up with it so we don't have to start over when my guy comes home!

And your puppy dog has such a beautiful and cute face, I'm so sorry for your loss.

 

I think we have all lost cargo out the back, from the lack of closing the tailgate, at least once in our lives
