We\u2019ve had a lot of rain this year and everything in our yard has grown a lot. But it seems like the one thing that\u2019s grown the most is the weeds. Everyone has this problem and if you look around it obviously bothers some people more than others.<\/p>\n
I understand that a weed is just a plant in the wrong place but I\u2019ve spent a fair amount of time to create and maintain a fairly decent lawn and Claire has picked out flowers that appeal to her. I like grass and I like flowers, but I don\u2019t want grass growing in the flower beds and I don\u2019t want flowers growing in the lawn.<\/p>\n
Sometimes when we\u2019re driving, I notice wildflowers and weeds along the road and often I think they look pretty nice \u2014 but not in our lawn or flower beds. But I give them credit \u2014 weeds are survivors. Someone said that a weed is a plant that has mastered every survival skill except for learning how to grow in rows. Seems like that\u2019s true\u2026.<\/p>\n
So \u2014 I think I\u2019ve decided to come to terms with weeds on a philosophical level, and take action by having a cold Margarita and watching those weeds grow. Man is the only critter that feels the need to label things as flowers or weeds\u2026..
