Straight Lines and Circles

(it's an old photo,

but it shows the straight lines

in a way you don't see them at the moment

when the patch is overflowing with green leafy caterpillar homes!)

I'm oscillating between

excitement

at turning the straight lines of our current vege patch into circles....

and mounting despair

at the work involved!

It would be a good time

to remind myself of the occasion

when

after one of the hardest days the kids and I did in the garden,

moving the heavy sleepers into place,

my LazyBoy said

"That was one of the best days of my life Mum"

It would be a good time

to remember I *like* curves.

(see the kiddos all weeding.....

we've gone through a series of plants in this spiral

and none of them have done too well....

we pulled out the latest dead ones

and the next trial is herbs)
