Working, I have been working so terrible hard in both my gardens, that i am totally kaput! It feels great! Every muscle in my body hurts, my legs, my hands even... I will sleep like a baby i think. This wild / permaculture garden is a hell of a lot of work! First the front garden, thank god, that is not such a big garden and has a lot of big bush, trees in them... I only had to prune and rip out the wild grass.... Cut the flowers of the elder bush, i am making elder flower limonade! That is such a treat! Now, the back garden..? That is something totally different! It is a long garden, 7 meters that is pretty long for Dutch standard... The are some shrubs, and trees... but a lot of wild stuff, going even wilder.... While l let the hose water the garden i worked on pulling all kind of weeds out... Unwanted weeds.... I have pulled out a lot of stuff, but still the garden looks as wild and unkept as before! It is a miracle! I know now, which plants need to be moved to an other place... But that have to wait till autunm. Maybe i give some plants away, to friends.... I gave a baby Húmulus lúpulus, to my gold smid friend... She was very happy with the plant... I feel great, when i can feel that i have worked very hard! Every muscle is telling me that! In the afternoon, i already felt the muscle ache in my hands and legs... from working in the front garden! Tomorrow will be an easy day, i think Just cleaning up all the stuff i ripped out of the ground! My strawberries & raspberry are ripe and my white berries almost! Also, this year the birds did enjoy the blackberries very much! I cant win that game! And some other fruit is hard working to get there, too! Dentist appointment in the afternoon... |

Gardening is a lot of work......i'll bet yours is beautiful

I like to work in the garden in the twilight time, when it is almost too dark to see, what you are doing....., that gives a very special energy... It was too cold, for me, to stay outside and watch the bat air show.....

I have been working inside, organizing my pantry. Sore from bending up and down, moved shelves around. Plenty to go. Back was sore before I started the project. Probably not as sore as you. It is good to have a garden. "One Big Sky Covers Us All Equally"

rosa What a wonderful way to be tired! I am sure the Garden will reward your love and care A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. George Bernard Shaw Jenny
