I'll be the first person to tell you that I'm not a flower person. I could care less if my yard has them. Sure, they look nice. But they are also a lot of work. And I don't care to spend my time slaving away under the hot sun. However, our landlord made it clear that our landscaping is the best out of all the rentals she has. Whether that was supposed to impress me or not, I don't know. It was made clear, though, that we were to maintain this landscaping and keep it looking just as nice as the day we moved in. Have we done that? Not exactly. Ok, so not even close. It's just not our thing, I guess.
I have one rosebush out front (and several out back, which I choose to ignore). Last winter, it got out of control. It was attacking guests who were trying to access our front door. I feared lawsuits. So we cut it back considerably. And now that spring has passed and summer is here, the bush is again out of control. And it has pretty, pink roses all over. So I thought I would snap a photo when I got home from work today. Someone else was also enjoying the roses. (Or, she mostly likely saw the camera and wanted to strike a pose. Pick me! Pick me!) And as a testament to the fact that I don't do yardwork, please note the massive weeds that are growing around this rosebush. See, I don't lie. Not my thing.

i hate yardwork and jon has never mowed a lawn in his life. that is actually one of the reasons that we still live in an apartment - we're just too lazy to take on yarwork responsibilities. sad, isn't it?
