I
may have the teaching bug….but I DO NOT have the garden bug. Don’t get me
wrong, I love plants and flowers and gardens. I just don’t get much
satisfaction out of gardening.
Perhaps
it’s because out current garden has areas that get overrun with weeds. Since it
rarely gets cold enough to stop plants from growing, something is blooming
constantly in our yard…..even the dandelions. I don’t shovel snow, but I dig in
the dirt year round….to pull up weeds. And before you ask, Roundup doesn’t take
care of the mustard plant the kids call sour grass. They’re pretty, they’re
native, and they’re invasive. 
Sigh
I
have about 20 more man hours to go before I can even start thinking of planting
vegetables or flowers. I’ve missed pea planting time for yet another year. Ah
well. It won’t get done sitting here…..
