Last weekend I found myself standing outside in the pouring rain at 10 o’clock at night while I was trying to spread down some grass seed in hopes of taking advantage of the wet weather in a desperate attempt to give my lawn a jump start for the spring. Grass! I realized as I...

Like a lot of people I used this weekend to take down the Christmas decorations, take the Christmas tree out to the curb and generally put the house back into “post-holiday” status.
