Now days I guess kids just pull out their connected device and play games, text, or surf the Net. Wouldn't hurt them to pull a few weeds.

Weeding can be theraputic for me, it keeps me on my knees and gives me thinking and praying time.

I saw a bunch of green growing up between the rocks in my yard! How dare those weeds grow through all those layers of week cloth I laid out last year, I thought! I headed out to yank them out of the ground and discovered they are 30 or 40 California Poppy plants! Reprieve! I came back in and sanded down the bathroom cabinets to paint! <br /><br />Tonihttp://musingsfrommara.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-3557312938600071312018-02-07T01:45:53.800-05:002018-02-07T01:45:53.800-05:00Your mum was onto something, I used to hand weed o...Your mum was onto something, I used to hand weed our small lawn, it is therapeutic and I find dishwashing therapeutic also.
