Ahh Gardening!

Okay So I've been wanting to redo the landscaping around a tree we have out front and this was the week. 

So I've been out several times for several hour stretches working on this project- you know removing all the old rocks, the old fabric, laying more dirt, adding plants, spliting, rearranging, and removing existing plants, laying new fabric, laying old rocks and then new rocks on top.  Anyway, yesterday I was out working, working, working, I saw my neighbor across the street, we talked.  I said hi to my next door neighbors, waved to the postman, breifly chatted with another neighbor driving by, talked to my backyard neighbor, even talked with Kamiah's neighbor friends who were over...and then I go inside...Hello I looked like a punk rocker!  I had had my hair in a front pouf thing and like I said I was working around a tree... so dig out rocks (bump my head into the tree), dig out plants (snag my hair on the tree), stomp the dirt down (bump my head again) etc.etc. (And I was out for 3 hours!!)  Why did no one tell me my hair was sticking up like crazy (I mean crazy!) .  Kamiah?  Wesley?  Even Scott????  I guess I'll have to start shining my shovel and double check my reflection every now and then for wild and crazy tree hair!
