A Good Morning to you !

Well, it has been awhile since I was back. Much to think about. Right now I am thinking about spring and flowers and planting the garden. Yes, yes it can be a daunting task indeed. Much work putting in a garden. It's not just the smelling of flowers and pulling a weed here and there. No sir. There is hard work involved. Like digging, unless you are lucky enough to have a rototiller. Or someone else to do the digging or for that matter someone else to do the rototiller. They are a cumbersome, heavy machine and I don't believe I could handle it. So as you can see I must or I should say, I will have someone else get the garden ready. I suppose I could put the seed in the ground. That shouldn't be so very hard. Mainly bending over and placing it in the furrow. Of course it might be hard on the lower back so must think about that. Perhaps I could get who ever I get to do the roto thing they could go back and put the seeds in the ground. Should be, no trouble at all, don't you think. Then of course there is the watering as we can not always think of Mother Nature to do it routinely. After all if I should go to the trouble of having someone plow and put in the seed I could not by good conscious allow the ground to dry up. No, No that would never do so, of course I must see about having the fellow who also did the rototilling and the planting of the seed also on a regular basis water the garden then of course if he should see a weed of sorts popping up surely he would be inclined to pull it out. After all he would not want his hard work to go for not, now would he. Then of course when the plants do begin to produce I would expect this same fellow to also watch and pick at the proper time the fruit of his labor, as it were. Oh, how impressed I would be to have a bowl or basket of produce from my garden sitting on my table. My, my how it does make me so out of breath to think of all the planning I have done to insure I will have fresh food on my table. If only everyone were as thoughtful as myself. Good gardening to you !!
