Inside is wrapping up NICELY

Yesterday, dad completed my office and desk and I started unpacking my books. Unfortunately, sinuses have wrecked havoc on my head and I could barely move, so the library/office is miserably unfinished on my part. But it's really looks cool.

There's very little for mom and I to do inside the house now so we started cleaning up the flower beds and working outside. The previous owner planted a variety of things in each bed and that's really not my taste. We transplanted a succulent of some kind into a flower pot on my porch, it's cute there. I actually intended for it to go in the house but may leave it on the porch. We pulled out an unknown flower of some kind in one bed because I have a ton of it in another and then filled that bed with all one thing - Monkey Grass hard to kill and pretty purple flowers every now and then. The main reason I wanted the Monkey Grass right there is that it lines the side walk to my front door and it weeds itself. The Monkey Grass is usually always green during the spring and summer, so my main walk will be weed free and green at least 6 to 9 months a year.

That was the small flower bed and it was hard work - Arrrggg. I am still somewhat confused as to what to do with the mint but I think I want to line the back of the house with it so when I open the windows maybe the mint smell will filter in. Don't know yet....I have to decide soon or I can't work on the big flower bed, it's filled with mint. Mom and dad are going to give me some bushes they have for my that flower bed and the mint is in the way.
