Got to cement the head back on the watering girl fountain, and repaint it. Got to weed eat. Pressure wash some chairs. Fix a table on the patio. Cut some limbs.

I need to do some building, but it's going to have to wait until I find a 9 to 5 unfortunately. I think I might have  killed a lavender vine the previous owner here kept going.. It's vines were  wrapping around everything, and it honesty became one with the back fence before I bought the place.. I don't wan't it to die, hopefully it blooms out soon.. I cut down trees it was wrapping around and slashed some vines last year..

If I even knew what it was it might help.. It's got purple flowers, and often mostly because the weather here sucks it's just a tangle of thin woody branches that are literally one with the fence back there.. I'm gonna have to start watering probably. Last year that thing was crazy enough to make green vines that ltiterally ended up tangling around all the trees, and half the fence seperating my neighbors yard from mine so it's hard to believe it's dead.

Sounds like something a wisteria would do. We have a wisteria tree, but they start out as vines and will go up and around everything in it's path. We have some going up a pine tree now.

yeah that's what my googling led me to.. Whoever was responsible for growing this thing through the fence line has botanical expertise far greater than mine though.. It might not be Wisteria, I wiah I had pictures of it green and blooming.. It's survived blizzards..droughts, and all kinds of crap.. but I chopped down some connections it had.. It couldn't have been sapping nutrients anyway with just tangled vines though now that I think about it more.. I don;t think it bloomed last year even, but it greened out. It just becomes a thing of fairy tales in the winter lol.. It has pure wood branches spiraling around my wood picket fence.. 

I only get off on this topic because my neighbor wants to go haves on the fencing especially the border.. and that was one of my concerns.. I didn't want to take this thing out.. and it literally is the back fence to the alley lol.

Yeah, I'd want to keep it too. It performs as a natural barrier, which a very good thing.
