I’m not a doctor, but I play one in the yard.
Okay, not really, but the surgical mask is what I’ve resorted to when I need to do yard work during the height of spring allergy season. So, this week, I’ve been weeding and mulching the flowerbeds while wearing the latest in yard work fashion. To venture forth without it is inviting the pollen in the air to turn me into a sneezing, snuffy-headed, crazed woman. I’d rather look like a dork, thanks.

You don’t look like a dork! (Snicker)
And no worries about not being able to visit the blog… we all get busy:) And I don’t think I suck. At least, not for very long! LOL
Am working on revisions for an editor now. Maybe that’ll turn out. Or maybe not. LOL We can only control what we can control!

Your flowerbeds are GORGEOUS!
I’m never brave enough to put flowers in the ground - I stick with pots. Maybe it’s from renting for so many years.

Your phlox are absolutely gorgeous!!! Do you want a side job working on my flowerbeds? Love to see you.

LOL, Motherkitty. It’s all I can do to keep up with my own flowerbeds. The phlox are actually very easy to grow, and they just get bigger every year. They’re a good ground cover.
Mary, I tend to kill plants in pots. I do much better sticking them in the ground.

Nice flowers!
I’ve worn the mask. Which sounds like a quote from an Edwardian drama, but does indeed refer to pressed paper and elastic.

Oh, beautiful flowers, Trish. What a green thumb you have. When I pull weeds I wear the mask too! Being a dork is much smarter than trying to look stylish! Keep up the good work.
Hugs, Theresa
