yards landscaping and swearing

Anybody else trying to put in a yard from scratch?  It sucks.  No, not satisfying, it sucks.  Sucks money, time, patience, good will, money, time...you get the idea.  We are trying to do so on a budget.  That sucks some more.  Throw me money maybe I can throw it at the yard.  I need someone who goes out of state on a regular basis to get me a powerball ticket once a week.  I could 300 use million.

I digress.  again.  My wife has dry, red eyes from looking at numerous web sites for free sod, dirt, manure, compost, pea gravel etc.  She even threw her laptop at me.  Landscaping companies are horrible internet people.  Often they don't have a web site or it doesn't function but almost every one does NOT post prices.  You want my business, post a price.  I do not want to call, or more correctly, my wife does not want to call, or more correctly, neither of us want to call 15 places, get a hold of 5, get 3 quotes because they can't tell us for some stupid reason and then discover the 100 dollar delivery charge and then get hit with the gas surcharge.

This sucks!
