Gardening
Okay so for those of you who ACTUALLY love to garden this is not the post for you, LOL. I am one of those people who absoultely, positively, really DISPISE gardening. I don't mean just the weeding part or any of that I mean the whole darn part of gardening. I realize God made Earth a beautiful place for us to inhabit, but come on, how can standing outside in the blistering heat to pluck at weeds, water, hoe, germinate, fertilize etc be any FUN. My motto has always been if it is not a rock or a weed I WON'T GROW IT!!!!! Okay so in comes my mother and my daughter. My complete hatred towards gardening I blame on my mother. As I grew up she had FIVE ACRES completely landscaped and she made me go out and help take care of the whole darn thing. Now why should I have been subject to taking care of her garden that she had to have. Yes she loved it and that was great. The woman had such a green thumb she could take a seed from an apple and grow a thriving apple tree. Me on the other hand seems to kill everything green that I touch. Well somehow my daughter has gained her Grandmother's addiction for gardening. So after much persuasion and the fact that we no longer have Cheyanne who loved to dig up the flowers I agreed to buy five flower pots, LOL. So here is our garden almost a whole month later. This picture depicts one of the five flower pots I allowed her to have. But the deal was she was to water it each and every day. Well guess who has watered it the last three days! Yes that would be me. So how did it go from my daughters garden to mine, LOL. Okay just my rant for the day! Oh and BTW the gaping hole in the middle of the pot is yes because two flowers died, LOL. I told you I don't grow things well!

I can't grow a thing either. . .wish I could but have accepted that I can't especially when you forget to water it. LOL!
I am right there with you too, I have a black thumb, not a green one. I kill all plants. DH does the gardening outside, I cannot stand to get my hands dirty. Almost phobic about it. LOL Did I eve mention I am a chronic hand washer?
