Why is my back hurting?
I spent last Saturday pressure washing my front yard! Thank goodness it was about 60 degrees that day, which helped all the labor I was doing.

Believe me, I know! This was my second time pressure washing in the last four years. I did not apply a sealant, which is why I had to do it again this year. I highly recommend applying a concrete sealant one hour after to preserve the concrete and avoid dirt forming in the future. Let me give you the low-down on my experience doing this.

01
JIF creamy peanut butter
If you're team crunchy... we need to talk, ha-ha! I am #teamcreamy all the way. You will find my pup, Oakley and I enjoying a teaspoon of peanut butter every night.
02
COCOA BUTTER LIP BALM
I literally buy this in bulk twice a year from Walgreens and have been doing so for the last 6 years. I've never looked back! You can say this is a true obsession, ha-ha! Awkward, but an obsession nonetheless.
03
COOL TOUCH BED PILLOW
I have a confession to make... I get extremely hot when I sleep at night. So much so I had to invest in a cool touch pillow. This is in addition to lowering the AC to low 70s and cranking up the bedroom fan. You will find my hubby Andrew buried under the covers! *shrug emoji*
look at all that dirt build-up!
DURING THE PRESSURE WASHING:
This is a short video of the progress I made. It may take a few seconds to load. It's insane to see all that dirt magically come off with the pressure washer! It was so satisfying doing this, truly!
My leggings were soaked and full of dirt!
FINISHED PRODUCT
Here is what the sidewalks looks like now after being pressure washed.
You know what's crazy? Our grass actually seems greener now that the sidewalk is bright white! We love it! Now we won't have to do this for hopefully another 6-8 years. Let's see how the sealant holds up!
You can easily rent a pressure washer from Home Depot here for about $32 for 4 hours. Andrew bought a gas one a few years ago from Costco for about $200 for the house when we first moved in so we had one already.
Let me know if you end doing this to your yard! I'd love to know.
