Ask anyone who knows me and they will tell you that I am NOT a neat-freak. Sure, I like to keep a clean house but I can handle the clutter if necessary. That is why I am very surprised to find out that all of these falling leaves are making me nuts!!!
Please keep in mind that we moved into The House from a home that was only six years old and only had one tree in the entire yard. So, this very small tree did not have much to offer in terms of falling leaves. Now we live in a very old home with two very mature trees with a whole bunch of leaves to offer!
I actually don't mind if the leaves fall in the grass but somehow the leaves on the sidewalks really bug me. The worst part of it all is that I swept/raked yesterday!!!! It is like these leaves are taunting me and once I get everything nice and clear a big gust of wind comes and the whole thing is covered up again.
I know this is something that I am going to have to live with and the fact that these trees haven't even really begun to drop their leaves for real (both trees still appear to be very full) but I have become a sidewalk sweeper.
Think I can keep these daily sweeping/raking missions going all fall?????
