Do you live in Ohio?  I live in NW Ohio. It is such a hassle with this
because I have been pulling it up and it grows so fast and I even got some

===>Yep, SW Ohio, just outside Cincinnati.  Creeping Charlie is a terribly
obnoxious weed and yes, as you say it is fast growing.  And tough.  I think
roundup will take care of it, although you may have to apply more than once,
but usually charlie creeps among other plants that would also be killed by
the roundup.  So I just pull and pull and pull.  Between Charlie, the
crabgrass that wanders into my beds, the wood sorrel and the sheep sorrel,
and the cardamine hirsuta and chickweed, weeding here is nearly a full-time
job.
