I think I’m the only woman on my block that actually gets down on her knees and digs around in the dirt doing landscaping. Everyone else seems to go to Zumba classes, or water aerobics (or whatever they call it today). They walk by and marvel at the fact that we do it ourselves. In fact, their dog walks have become more frequent so they can see the progress! Hubs and I have saved thousands of dollars in landscaping labor by DOING IT OURSELVES. It isn’t easy, your nails get ruined, you sweat profusely, your hair … well.

That’s awesome! I can’t say I enjoy gardening much though I like the results 😁 I always hated my frequent childhood chore of pulling weeds so maybe that’s part of it. I get my outdoor time by running roads or trails. I always admire people who are handy and good at gardening or diy projects. I am not naturally good at any of that and don’t have the patience to learn right now. I do like growing herbs but they’re pretty easy.
