This blog is about day-to-day life in the suburbs, that zany zone where the back yards meet the woods and the deer come for dinner. Thanks for stopping by!

Five Good Reasons for not Raking Leaves
Hate raking or blowing away the leaves?! Me too. I just worked for hours yesterday removing the leaves in the back yard and in the front lawn. Today, you'd never know. The wind has blown more leaves from the trees. Both the front and back yards look like leaf carpets!
I'm ready for good reasons NOT to remove leaves. I don't even care if they're GOOD reasons or not!!
1. The wind will remove them - into your neighbour's yard!
2. The deer like the leaves, don't they?
3. You always wanted lovely brown, golden and orange carpets on your grass.
4. Might as well wait until ALL the leaves are down, right?
5. They're not MY leaves. They blew in from someone else's trees
Can you think of any other reasons that I don't have to rake the leaves?
