yuck and yay

Yay! I posted some bushes I no longer wanted on Freecycle and someone came to get them. Actually I got a lot of responses I was amazed. But they have gone to their new happy home.

The yuck part? It was raining cats and dogs today and I had promised to dig up the bushes. Silly me. And we all know what a wimp I am...I loathe gardening in the rain, especially the downpouring type. But I trudged out there and dug up all seven bushes. Only managed to haul four of them up the hill; luckily the people who came to get them were more than happy to fetch the other three.

Step one towards the garden redesign has begun. As Confucius said, "A journey of a thousand miles..."
