I was used to cold and rainy weather, so when the forecast predicted clear skies and temperatures above 70 degrees, I was thrilled.

• I was determined to get out of the house and get some work done in the yard.

There was a list that I added to whenever a project popped into my head and it was getting quite long. The warm temperature and clear skies were begging me to get that list done. On the first nice day, I woke up early and began pulling all the weeds in the flower bed. All of the rain made the weeds grow a foot above the ground and they needed to be controlled. After the weeds were pulled, I moved to the backyard and began pulling the weeds around the AC condenser unit. They had grown taller and thicker in that location as well, and I was worried that they’d begin negatively affecting the efficiency of the AC. Along with the weeds, I raked all of the leaves that had fallen around the AC condenser unit. When I was finished, I couldn’t believe how big the pile was! There were so many weeds, leaves, and debri surrounding the AC condenser unit and it was time to remove it all. If left untouched, it could cause problems with the way my AC ran and create even bigger issues internally. I’m really glad that the warmer weather came so that I could get all that yard work done. Who knows what would have happened had I waited even longer?
