Secondly, when I went over to my bench to sit down for a minute. I was stunned!! Where were my geraniums? As I looked closer I realized that, probably a squirrel, had cut them down to the ground and just left them lying there. No reason for it at all. They didn't even eat them!!! Out of 4 I had only one left. These are the times I just want to throw my hands in the air and give up. Then as I was getting up off my knees I looked at the sunflowers which are just about 9 inches tall right now and realized that the deer had enjoyed those plants tremendously last night!! They are now about 3 inches tall. Pardon my whining here but people just don't realize how much work it takes to maintain this herb garden. If they did they'd realize that it is taking all I've got not to just break down in tears!! Oh well, one has to remember they are only plants!! You have to think like that or this sort of thing would just make you give up.
I've got some more garden pics on my Pictures page if you're interested!!
We're having an old-fashioned type meal tonight. Plain old chicken-fried steak, mashed potatoes, gravy and green beans. It's been awhile since we had chicken-fried steak and it just sounded good. It will be messy but sometimes a little mess is worth it.
