Don't Grow Mint in Your Garden

This really is just going to be one big venting process for me. Soooo if you don't want to hear about my frustrations then don't read this.

Grower's tip: Don't grow Mint in your Garden
Seriously. I have a big garden in my back yard about 8 ft by 4 ft and I grew all sorts of stuff like sage, rosemary, garlic, basil, thyme and the dreaded MINT. Oh and climbing spinach. (don't grown that either) The climbing spinach was literally like that plant on Little Shop of Horrors.
Mint grows like a freakin weed. I dug it all out this year (or so I thought) and it keeps popping up everywhere. If you are gonna grow it do it in a pot. Seriously...I find the tiniest leaves poping up through the soil and its MINT with a root system about a foot long. AGH UGH WHATEVER. Ok not really that big of a deal, but I'm trying to grow some watermelon and i picked those leaves by accident. Kinda frustrating.

Cleaning tip number 1:
Ok I know....... WHAT?!?..... Meredith you don't clean. Well folks for those of you who are aware. Cooper our dumbass dog has seizures. (really not that big of a deal) except that his dumb medicine makes him have an unbelievably HUGE, ENORMOUS, MONSTROUS, GIGANTIC (he could eat 5 big as your face burritos from Chuy's) appetite. In the last week he has eaten one of my socks (freaking whole) he at an entire not partial but and ENTIRE loaf of bread, a whole bag of peanuts, a little roll of foil and other various items. Needless to say I came home today and he took a big ole' dump in my room. MY ROOM!!! for pete's sake. And yes ladies and gentlemen the peanuts were there. (Robinson: I know you are laughing your ass off right now at my expense) He left one pile in my closet and one on his dog bed on the floor. The one in the closet was worse. Not only were there peanuts but and this is a HUGE BUT.......there was a tube of Neosporin, a wine cork (still whole I might add) and something that resembled a baby wipe, but I'm not sure. So cleaning tip: when they pee on the the floor (and this really is good for anything ie: juice, wine, whatever liquid) spray that Woolite carpet cleaner on it and then sprinkle some cornstarch and just let it sit. You can sprinkle some baby powder too if you like. Then just vacuum it up. It really does work.

Oh and the REALLY BIG NEWS!!!! Addy took her first steps March 27th last week. We were so excited. I can't say it enough, but she really does make everything and I mean EVERYTHING better. Thanks for reading. I will try to put the video on later.
