I have owned my own house for 14 months and realized very quickly that it requires a lot of work. Seems like there is always stuff to do! From remodeling outdated rooms, doing regular maintenance, to cutting the grass….. it just never ends.

I live in one of those neighborhoods where there is a lot of pressure to have a nice yard. One guy, I swear, cuts his grass every-other day.

Well lately I have noticed that my grass as been looking a little……mmm… dead. I hired TruGreen, but didn’t see much improvement.

I had a hunch that maybe the sprinkler system was having issues, but it was just checked a few weeks ago. Figured it wouldn’t hurt to do a test run during daylight hours since I have the timer set to 4 a.m.

Bingo! Look what I discovered:

I busted out the old PVC primer and cement and got the pipe reglued in no time. Now it is just a waiting game for the yard to come back to life… .hopefully.
