okay i pushed it okay so what do you do in your lawn do you do it yourself or do you hire someone to do it uh no we've been doing it ourselves for most of the time uh find that it's really a little more economical and we have or i found that i have the time and i kind of enjoyed it over here in Texas i used to live in Arizona and it was very confusing very frustrating because i didn't have the watering system and it was it was just too much work and not enough enjoyment but over here we get enough water automatically you know naturally as well have the automatic sprinklers and so it's a lot more rewarding uh-huh um-hum yeah right uh-huh uh-huh so well we do our own out here of there you know mow it ourselves and everything but um our water supply right now is bad we need rain badly oh that's right uh we can water here and Patterson i can water on Tuesdays Thursdays Saturday and Sunday four days a week um-hum is is that enough during the hotter times of the year so it was this last summer yeah um-hum uh now if it we don't get some rain they might limit it to not even four times you know yeah yeah but um yeah we do our lawn our you know mowing ourselves and everything and i do our planting of bulbs and things for i can have some spring flowers um-hum and uh yeah i i find that i've been doing a lot of perennial planting which i never did before and um-hum and it's been real enjoyable although i didn't do any this last fall because our past winters have been so cold um they'd freeze down and by the time they the flowers would um-hum come back to life it was supposedly the time to pull things out for the spring and summer planting oh so i was getting kind of disillusioned and tired and and spending too much money on something that was kind of uh more of a problem than it was rewarding so um-hum um-hum um i'm gonna try to wait now and just do the spring and summer type plantings and see how that yeah yeah we have quite a few roses i just uh we in fact we just pruned them uh way down and i uh just uh uh had to replace on of them so i just bought that yesterday and uh probably go outside today and plant that you know feels um-hum but um i like to have the roses where i can have cut flowers all year long yeah those are enjoyable i even had uh roses on my table for Christmas dinner oh did you which was really pretty you know but um other than the roses i don't have too many flowers i plant gladiolas um-hum um those are nice and those are always pretty but they get so tall and they they bend over so fast uh-huh you know yeah yeah i haven't done much in in bulbs in fact i received as a Christmas present a a a planter that had bulbs in it that we were supposed to go ahead and water at any time and and after it started to sprout put in sunny window and it's it just grew like crazy but i don't have any flowers on it i don't know how long that takes or if there's anything i need to differently but um-hum hum it's just nice and green right now um-hum well is it that one of those Amaryllis uh no i'm thinking white narcissus or something like a paper white paper flower or something no huh oh okay uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh and uh so i don't know do you have a big yard no not really and in Plano and most of the newer areas of Texas uh they have just the the minimum square footage for lots to where you get a little bit of a backyard we have a pool in our backyard and we did plan it to where we have um-hum some some play yard last over but it's it's um you know very small but most of the houses here if you have a pool you don't have anything else in the backyard that's that's about the size of most of them um-hum yeah right right um-hum um-hum so um i guess we're kind of fortunate everyone looks at that with our yard at our yard with kind of a sense of awe like wow you really got you know some grass back there um um-hum um-hum um-hum well that makes it nice and yeah well it's hot enough here in the summer time that we could have a pool but we don't have one um-hum you know but they are a lot of people that do have pools around here you know but we just we just have yeah yeah dogs and um and grass and uh you know the cement work and a little place that we made for a garden uh-huh uh yeah yeah um-hum so we do have a garden you know oh do you it's just a small one you know but we had a lots of tomatoes and uh zucchini oh uh it's amazing it's amazing what you can get out of a little uh-huh you know it's probably about twenty by i don't know twenty by six something like that and it's amazing what you can you know how many plants you can plant in there yeah yeah but it was nice a few cucumbers that's one part of gardening i haven't tried yet and i don't think this yard is a very um-hum um-hum
