Ok, I'll admit I'm not an outdoorsy person (love being out there when its between 60-70 deg.). That's not often. lol I think maybe we should start a challenge for the outside of our homes. I know, I barely get done the inside stuff, but sometimes when I come home (if I every get out ) I think, what a craphole! I love my home, but dh never picks up after his "projects and the kids outdoor toys are all over the place, the weeds are getting higher, I could go on forever. Just thought I'd put it out there if anyone's interested.

That would be good but right now where I am its 104 in the shade!

Ok, this seems pathetic but I'm answering my own post. I am setting aside 1 hour a night (very optimistic lol) to go outside and do something productive. Tonight I hosed down and deflated pool and sandbox toys as well as the inflatable pool to store. Tomorrow I'll box em up and weed a little bit I think. I hope this helps anyone else w/ this problem.

Great job! I will be anxious to hear that you got something done tonight as well. I'd join you, but as the PP said it is SO HOT here right now. I really need to clean up the mess around my kids' sand and water table. What a disaster!

It's not super hot here- but really humid (I hate sticky weather!). I am up for a challenge for this! We always can use an hour outside just cleaning up the yard, weeding and so on!
