Weed
March 6, 2008 by Kaydee
I weeded in the garden yesterday.
Now every muscle in my body is screaming in pain.
Would rather pee my pants than go through the torture of trying to use the toilet.
Somehow eating Nestly Semi-Sweet chocolate chips by the handful is helping me cope with the pain.
Kaydee you are so lucky to be weeding already! Of course, I’m speaking as one who is still looking out at brown grass, the remnants of dirty snow along the sidewalk, the merest hint of buds on the Maples, and the just the tips of green poking up through the ground from the crocuses and the chives.
I can’t wait to be all achy and whiny, and complaining about my ragged dirty fingernails, creaky knees, and stiff muscles. As for right now, the ground is a bit muddy and unworkable, the air is still cold, and the sky more gray than blue.
At least the Spring catalogs have arrived showing off their brightly colored, perfectly planned, weedless gardens in all their glory. I’ll have to be satisfied with dreaming for at least another month. Enjoy your early start!
Found your blog, somehow…sounds stalkerish, huh? Hahah…anyway, I love the spelling of your name, since mine is the regular old “katie”. I am newly married (sort of…a year in august)…and a teacher. I just found your blog very humorous, and I can relate. So, I think i will start reading. Oh yea, and a relationship with Jesus…a must
Take care!
