Stephen Harper Can Cut My Grass

Canadians from coast-to-coast will be gobbling up the tax credit our benevolent leader has lobbed at the home renovation market to kick start the economy for the rest of the year.

How this is supposed to economically drive the nation out of a tailspin, I don’t know. But I’m not going to fight a 15% tax credit on a juicy new lawn for my backyard. You see, the asshats who we bought the house from did a half ass makeover of the place before they flipped it. They made it look good, but the work was awful. They tossed sod on top of rocky clay instead of laying new topsoil and while the yard looked great when we bought the house, the grass quickly died off leaving nothing behind.

The deck was rotting, the grass was dead and our yard was crap. So thanks to the tax credit and a great wedding gift from my parents, we had the great guys from Great Canadian Landscaping come by this week and fit out a new lawn for the yard.

It’s awesome, we can’t wait to run barefoot through the sprinkler with Z in the yummy grass.

I only wish the tax credit was good last year when I built the deck, put in a new roof, furnace and hot water heater!
