8. Most of my perennial flower beds have gone feral...

...which is actually ok. The border beds and wildflower beds I'm leaving to their own devices - I live in the country and feral is a fine look out here. But I am desperately trying to keep the main one in front of the house from turning into a jungle - a challenge, as the footprint of that garden is larger than my house, lol. I have given up on annuals -- too much work for something that's not coming back next year.
I also had to give up on the veggie garden - perhaps the 19 year old will be motivated this year to plant something in it.
