I couldn't help myself, really. I was down at The Homestead at Struan Farm, walking around the roadside wooded garden, when I came across a huge infestation of weeds. To make matters worse, in addition to the usual suspects, I found clusters of onion weed and aluminum plant, two invasive pests I have been working hard to eradicate for the past two years.
What else could I do but jump into the fray? I'm well and truly into the post surgical recovery period when one is supposed to be able to resume "normal activities." However I'm concerned that my "normal" might be just a wee bit different from the average "woman of a certain age," at least in terms of physical work...
I did stop after awhile, since I did start to feel it. (Plus, the trailer was pretty much full!)
But the good news is that I've done some work outside in the gardens and have had dirt under my fingernails again, hooray!
