What comes after rock?

Weed abatement fabric of course! scha. So last weekend beth rolled out and staked down the professional grade landscapers' fabric (she would have none of the standard, amateaur grade). After pulling out and poisoning all the oxalis, this fabric is our next line of defense so beth is not fooling around. After the fabric went down, she pulled out her color-coded plant map (phase1), laid out, and planted the first batch of plants.

She did all the heavy work on this...i was pretty much there in my capacity as lazy ass.

Okay i did trim all of our gorgeous and giant sage plants down to sad, bloomless spikeballs in preparation for replanting in the front.

Non-house-related

Beth gets up for work around 5 a.m. every day because she works 4 10s. On Friday night, she worked until about 9 p.m. and got home exhausted. We went to bed and at 5 a.m. beth's alarm went off because she forgot to turn it off for the weekend. She sat bolt upright, looked around and asked "Is it saturday?" I said "yes" and her sleepy reply as she turned off the alarm was "that's better than my wedding day". She went back to sleep for 3.5 more hours. Just so you know, our wedding day was REALLY good.
