taking care of garden business is always a reward, to see your plants and trees grow and flourish, its feels great dosent it. its sounds like another heavenly day for you. i was hoping to pick your brains over a pain management thingy. perhaps in the next couple of days? pleasant dreams x
I have zero gardening experience, so I apologize to the plants and trees before having my way with them. We'll see in a year's time whether or not I've been successful.
so I apologize to the plants and trees before having my way with them.
This is a very non-Western way of thinking...and one that nearly everyone seems to have forgotten. this is the most important thing you could have done in your garden. Anyway, you've picked an OK time to do it, when the sap is starting to leave the furtheset limbs and go deeper into th plant, into the trunk and roots for the winter. Such an act in Spring would have been harder for them to recover from. Well done.
I'm kind of ... what's the right word? "Sentimental" isn't it. But, when it comes the natural world, there are self-created rituals I practice. So, for example, when I found evidence of a mourning dove being slaughtered, I did a little ceremony honoring it for it's contribution to the local life cycle and remembering it's beauty. Some might call it excessive and I have no rational justification beyond the fact that it feels right to me

wow, I've been a lumber jill too, chopping chopping chopping. I had to do battle with a passion vine that had it's way with a crepe myrtle. It had pulled several branches into it's maw and was ..well I don't know what it was doing but I worked on setting it free. See here's the thing. I have no problem loping stuff off, it's the picking up part I stall out on. I tell myself I'm leaving it there so all the critters can make a run for it.
yeah that's it..the critters. yard guy is gonna hate me when he shows up to mow, my mess and my water hose piss him off. He's only suppose to cut the grass, he acts like a house keeper that doesn't do windows.

nope, he cuts the grass and weed eats, that's his job and he's sticking to it. I do understand where he's coming from. I'm a hairdresser and I don't do nails. why? because I'm a hairdresser. I *can* do nails but I don't. It's my choice. I love being at a point in my life where I get to decide, like if I'll even let someone be a client. I'm good enough to pick and choose. LOL I love telling advertisement I'm not open to the public when they want to do me the favor of listing my business.
