Although I wrote about "green" homes in my last post, I thought I might address some green lawns and getting yards in shape for the spring or, of course, getting ready to sell. I was looking at my own lawn and I have a lovely bare patch that looks like aliens landed and burned a whole in my yard with their space ship. Actually, someone left a wading pool filled with water too long in one spot, the sun got hot, and you can guess the rest of the story but aliens sound ever so much more fun!
Anyway, I have been staring at my personal bare spot (along with several places that my Jack Russells have been using as their potty all winter long) and contemplating some repairs. I took matters into my own hands with a rake and a bag of Wal-Mart grass seed but I may have gone about this all wrong. Today, lo and behold, I find this great website called American Lawns, http://www.american-lawns.com/problems/repair.html. This website has great tips for fixing not only my problem but lots of lawn problems.
Now if I can only find a great tip for pulling weeds!
About Me
- Gwen Williamson Mathews
- Yes, I sell Real Estate and yes, I do really love it! It's rewarding and I’m pretty darn good at it. I’ve always had a thing for houses and been fascinated by architecture but mostly, I like the people. Houses are fun however it’s clients that keep me in this business day after day! Nothing is more satisfying than helping my clients find the home of their dreams and when the time comes to move on, being there to help them sell that same house as quickly and as profitably as possible. Once upon a time I worked in higher education administration. I have an undergraduate degree from Transylvania University in English and Sociology and a master’s degree from The University of South Carolina (USC). After about 15 years of working in development and student life positions at The Savannah College of Art and Design, USC-Columbia and Transylvania University, I saw the light of real estate and discovered that I could be just as helpful to people as a Realtor as I was as a college administrator. Plus, I never have the same day twice! When I’m not working, I love spending time with my family, writing, reading, travelling, running, hiking and cooking.
