It's spring clean up time for the yard, so happy to know this is the last time I have to trim the ivy away from the waterfall in our back yard, the last time to clean the deck, power wash the patio, kill the moss in our yard. I am so NOT going to miss this part of home ownership.
Amazing how our perspective has changed over time, 11 1/2 years ago when we bought this place we were thrilled to have a 1/2 acre lot , 1000 sq foot patio, hot tub, 700 sq foot deck, a waterfall feature in the landscaping. However, after spending the last 4 summers on the road we realized we're missing the best time of year to enjoy all these outdoor ammenities and are so looking forward to not have to take care of all of them again.
Every day a few more things checked off the "to do" list!!

I can relate.................a year and a half ago we thought it was great to have five acres, a pool, hot tub, barn, horses, four dogs and hardwood floors in a 3300 square foot house............now, its just work.
One more grass cutting and the zero turn will go on Craigslist. With my Shark floor steamer. Good riddance!!

We also are in the last stages of our plan to become full timers. We hope this past weekend that we cleaned our windows for the last time! We live in a loft with 29 windows which are 7' tall and 4' wide. I hope all that work helps this place sell when we put it on the market in a few weeks! It is strange how our attitude has changed!

I sure don't miss weeding the garden and sidewalks. It was a never ending battle.
