Gardening Can Be Fun And Soothing
By ama | February 17, 2009
As far back as I can remember I've loved gardening. When I was young it would be impossiable to get me out of the garden, where I spent most of my days with my grandmother. Every summer I would spend all my days on my grandparents farm. My grandfather game me a proposal, work in the garden or study American histroy. It was simple in my mind because I loved being outside in the garden and didn't like school at all.
So that leads me to where I am today, still spending all summer in the garden, just now it is my backyard instead of the farm. This year I though I would plant a mix of vegetables. I began with tomatoes, then moved onto beans and brocoli. That was the easy part. I had to water them almost every day since this summer was so dry. I needed to get my man to chop down an intruding tree that was depriving my garden of the sun. Really it was a lot of work for a small amount of veggies.
Getting rid of weeds it the most boring part of gardening. This year I didn't have as many problems because I chose to go out and buy garden shovels. Being down on my knees all summer is just unpleasant. Next year now that I think of it I might hire someone to come in every once in while and do it for me. Now all I have left to do is convince the hubby, he's cheap.
Gardening tools make a big difference so I don't know why people aren't keener to buy gardening tools. If I had it my way the house would be filled with evey little tool that anyone has ever thought up. I love gardening and having the right tools makes it so much more enjoyable. Next time you are thinking of getting down and dirty, grab the right tool for the job and have fun!
