We worked in the yard all day yesterday. We haven't planted anything yet but just from cutting down over grown mexican heather (we cut it back almost to the ground), trimming the crepe myrtles, raking all the leaves out of the beds and cleaning out the gutters it already looks a TON better.
We also dug up a ton of african lilies and split the clumps up and replanted some and just sat the rest in the back yard under a tree. I'm going to replant them in the next couple of days (they will be fine for a couple of days). But now I think we should have replanted more than we did in the original spot as it looks a bit thin there now. I think I will plant a few more back where we dug them up from.
My FB friends already know this but I washed a chapstick in the wash and it went through a whole dryer cycle. It melted on the clothes.

Some people on my FB swore by the Tide Stain Releaser so I stopped at the store on the way home from picking up my daughter from school and bought some. I'll report back and let you all know if it worked.

Oh I go to the orthopedic surgeon tomorrow to discuss the EMG and nerve test I had the beginning of January and to talk about the surgery. I am quite nervous about having the surgery now (I believe it is a tendon transfer). The doctor who performed the tests told me that some people are really glad they had it done while others really wish they didn't.
