What chemicals? The only ones I can find to work kill everything. When things start growing again, the first thing to grow is Creeping Charlie.

There is a product called Milestone that is pretty effective, but be careful with it it's tough on tomato plants (1st hand experience). BC had a good recipe for creeping Charlie chemicals, but I can't remember it.

Thanks. Last year, with all the rain, I didn't have much trouble. However, during a dry summer, the problem tends to creep up on you.
 
There are some weed-b-gone type sprays reformulated for creeping charlie that work way better than the old stuff. Spring when it's blooming or early fall are the best times to hit it. My neighbor used to have a monoculture yard of the stuff and I was always fighting if out of my yard but it's pretty much gone now. An occasional plant pops up and I did it up. Of course I am down to a mini-yard now so it's not like trying to chase it out of a big family yard.

Poured 1 and 2/3 yards of concrete today. I did all the mixing. Which means I lifted 114, 60lb bags of concrete into a wheelbarrow, hauled that out to the backyard (5 at a time), dumped each bag into a bucket and poured that into a cement mixer. My dad and cousin did all the forming/leveling. I lifted each bag a total of 3 times, so about 20,000lbs. You could say I'm a little worn out.

I feel like we need clarification on the square area or something. That seems like an insane amount for 1 2/3 square yards or anything close to that.

I went in and rounded them up just after posting that.
