Weekendness
Friday - Mom and little sister got in in the evening. We went to 328 Chinese, which has all the wonderful food that I was hoping for. John surprised us with fried ice cream for dessert.

Saturday - [livejournal.com profile] cleotigermom came up to shuffle children around with mom. We went out for good BBQ before mom took the kids on the trip and [livejournal.com profile] cleotigermom went back home. That night I went to [livejournal.com profile] aisa0's party, checked out his spiffy new house, drank some mead and drummed a bit.

Sunday - A nice late start to the day, followed by some gardening with [livejournal.com profile] alzarqa13, first at her place then at mine.

WoW and Life Changes
I canceled my WoW account today. I'm not really playing it much any more, as I'm busy with other things that I enjoy. I have until 4/19 before it to actually expires, so if I find myself playing again I can uncancel it pretty easily.
I'm not riding my bike as much as I would like, which I should fix. I am doing a lot of work on the house, and I really appreciate the help that [livejournal.com profile] sacra_imbri, [livejournal.com profile] alzarqa13, ~G~, [livejournal.com profile] cleotigermom and everyone else has given me. Actually, it seems like home improvement has taken up what was previously my WoW time. This may be a bad thing, since WoW is cheaper. ;D

Request for Ideas
On the home improvement train of thought, I need some help. In my front yard I'm going to be pulling two juniper bushes and a dying pine tree soon, and I have no idea what to replace them with. The area I'm concerned with is ~400 sq ft, and will contain an aloe, a prickly pear and a desert willow. There is a currently defunct sprinkler system that covers the area, but with a very small amount of money and a Saturday I could get it functioning again. I want a ground cover that is no/low water, easy to maintain and will get rid of what is currently growing there, namely ragweed, crabgrass and goatheads. Any ideas? So far all I've come up with is gravel, which is ok, but I'd like some more options.
