I spent the weekend blasting my side garden (which is 20 feet deep and 80 feet long) because I can no longer just pull the encroaching Bermuda. We destroyed so many plants with the brush cutter... My husband sent me inside to keep from having a heart attack over the horror. (I did make him spare my heirloom bulb bed, of course.)

We then tilled up...about 1/3 of it before we gave up for the day. I couldn't grip a glass of water without a struggle last night, that's how achy my hands were. Yeesh. We filled 5 30-gallon compost bags with the clippings and dug up Bermuda. I think we have another two or three still waiting to be dug. HEY WHO WANTS TO COME WORK IN 100F HEAT WITH ME? *crickets*

Thought not.

Fun things for you to read because you know Mondays aren't your favorite:

• I'm pitch-hitting for our normal True Blood recapper Sam, and my recap/review of "Hopeless" is up.
• Janey's rewatch of Dr. Who has been happening every Tuesday through Thursday, and the last episode was Bad Wolf
• Ditto for Samantha S's rewatch of Dexter, ramping up in time for the new season that starts soon. Season 5, eps 7 - 9 are up today!
• AND BREAKING BAD IS BACK. Melody will have her recap up shortly, so be sure to check back for that, as well.

(And thank you, guys, for the comments, the likes, the links and the love! We appreciate it!)

Today the kids and I are going to make those Nutella lava cookies (we didn't get to last week, after all.) I'll report back on the nomminess. *salutes*
