I had just posted my Wednesday post and started getting ready to go to bed when I walked into the kitchen and caught a glimpse of the front yard. What did I discover? The sprinklers that I had turned on at about 10 o'clock were still on at about 12:40 o'clock. For you musicians out there, that's 2 hours 40 minutes....about 2 hours too long. We'll see if this slight over-watering seals my lawn's fate or helps insulate it from those dang'd Santa Anas that blew the
roses right off my rose bushes today.



Here's the sad part. This is not the first time I have left the sprinklers on for a silly amount of time. In fact, the shock of an unbelievably large water bill nearly knocked the memory of the time I left the sprinklers on ALL night right out of my head. Nearly.
You'd think I would have learned my lesson....
