red and white currants- the only fruit from our yard this year. |
I have, admittedly, been a bad steward of our little pieces of the earth this summer. Our yard, our community garden plot, the yard at our little rental place- the weeds at all of them are growing faster than I can manage to pull them out. We are, as usual, crazy busy in the summer so that hasn't helped. But I still don't feel good about it.
In addition to the kids- who always want me to play with them (which I don't really mind), work is really busy again this year for some reason, the rental place needs lots of little repairs- and we have another project to work on- which I will get into in future posts- but for now I won't. But it's eating up just about all of the time I would have spent gardening in a normal summer. And the garden looks it.
