The perspective of it changes when it is done not because you have to - but because you choose to do it.kitsapFGhttp://www.modernvictorygarden.com/apps/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018402196949735412.post-39777231076812906822011-05-29T10:47:57.484-07:002011-05-29T10:47:57.484-07:00GrafixMuse, you're so right.

Today has been. . . less productive.<br /><br />Mr. H., nice quote!<br /><br />Daphne, I'm with you. I was one lazy child. Fortunately for me, I was also a coddled suburban child. And in the long run, it seems not to have harmed me. My children, on the other hand, are suffering : )<br /><br />Chris, often I'm a good example of what not to do. I used to garden in Tempe, AZ, and had a remarkably funny interaction once with a master gardener: Me -- when should I cut my artichoke back? Them -- you can't grow artichokes in AZ. Me -- would you tell that to the 6' one out back of my house?<br /><br />Lisa, it sure was. I am also thinking of buying some hives.Stefaneenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08422241601075022500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018402196949735412.post-91897664963117916022011-05-29T08:28:52.526-07:002011-05-29T08:28:52.526-07:00I'm glad you finally caught a swarm!

Yes there was a garden and turkeys, geese, and ducks, but they were never as much work as hauling wood and slash. I have a huge lazy streak in me. So I don't know how I grew us and started to like physical labor. I appreciate it. I even used to hate all housework when I was younger, and though parts of it I still don't like, most of it I don't mind doing and even some parts I enjoy. Sadly no one else in my family like hard work, so when I need help it is hard to get them out to help me.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018402196949735412.post-32152510530590369182011-05-29T06:00:37.719-07:002011-05-29T06:00:37.719-07:00So glad you were able to find a swarm and keep the...So glad you were able to find a swarm and keep the honey flowing.<br /><br />"I find that the harder I work, the more luck I seem to have." - Thomas JeffersonMr. H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04576034751522467377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2018402196949735412.post-53058722396766507162011-05-29T04:44:10.482-07:002011-05-29T04:44:10.482-07:00It is amazing how "work" seems to flow s...It is amazing how "work" seems to flow some days, but is a challenge on others.
