Oh to have a well kept garden…

As I sit here at the computer, next to me is the screen door to the back yard. I am listening to the comforting sounds of birds twittering their evening songs. I look outside and it is a beautiful sight with the sun’s glow illuminating a patch of purple/blue irises in full bloom. The weather is near perfect, no wind and about 70 degrees. Closer to the house, though, all I see is a mess. The front garden that I planted last year is a mess of weeds with some brave flowers struggling to bloom already. The back flower garden is the same, and everywhere in-between is chaos. I bought a tiller four weeks ago and have yet to unpack it, put it together, and till up the large vegetable garden near the back of our property. Oh to have a well kept garden…
