Yard Is done

It took me nearly two days to distribute all the dirt that was delivered, but I finally finished it. I got a little too much, but it wasn't a big deal.

After that was done, I fertilized and seeded. I seem to have put down twice as much seed as recommended, but Idont' see how that could hurt. I want to make sure it all takes. Tomorrow I'll play with the sprinkler to see if that will make watering easier.

Costs:
Round-Up: $15
Topsoil: $123
Feritlizer: $8
Seed (used): $25
Total: $171

That's about $800 cheaper than the quotes I got from landscapers, though they would have put down sod. I'll know in a couple weeks if this project went well. it's been a lot of work, so I really hope so.
