Gardenology 101: Lawncare

With the nice weather, and it still being early in the year, I thought that I might get ahead in the game and tend to the needs of the plant life that surrounds my house.  In particular, the grass.  Now my lawn isn't the greatest, many weeds and what seems to be creeping kind of mossy plant throughout.  I've raked some of it up and pulled as many of the dandelions as I felt like, but it's left my lawn a little bare in patches.

I figured that while the time of year is still right, I would buy some of that easy grow grass seed that they sell. I've tried it before and it came in a plastic dispensing container, so I figured I'd get a bag as a refill and save by buying in bulk.  I went to the store; it was $40.

My lawn is fine as it is.
