Current contents of my yard:
Misc cardboard garbage (the bin fell over due to wind recently)
An exhausted pipe (the mounts broke, and I'm getting rid of the car soon anyway, so it was easier to just tears it off)
Misc trash wood and furniture (indoor building projects)
An old crappy looking car (because for the next month I will still be driving an old crappy looking car)
I may not be helping the bees, but neighborhood cats love the "terrain"
Also, I'll be supporting a local dumpster rental as soon as the building project and shit weather is over, hopefully in a week or so.
You sound like me. Also an old trampoline. My grass has a lot of other stuff growing in it too, it all mows though. But I won't be ready to rent a dumpster for a few months.
The trampoline in my yard is reasonably new. The kids are waiting for better weather so we can properly rig it.
