I Hired A Gardener!

Yes!

Yes-It's true.

I hired a gardener to 

help me with this

blasted front yard.

I told the hired help

that I would pick them

up at 8:30 and to wear

clothes suitable for

digging and dirty work.

Here is what 

the gardener wore.

You see this outfit often

because it is her

FAVORITE.

She said she was really tired

cuz she had worked all morning.

She had to do the dishes

(put her bowl in the sink)

and start the laundy

(put her dirty clothes in the hamper)

and clean everything up...

uh-huh

To keep her little hands 

from getting dirty

she wore these.

She has her own hoe

which often ended up here.

So that she could do this...

on a tricycle that may

or may not be a tad too small.

Then...She went with me to 

Home Depot

and smelled all the flowers.

She picked these out herself

because she thought her

sisters would like them best.

You remember I said

I HIRED a gardener?

Well, friends,

here's where the payday

started....

A child's vanilla milk steamer..

Of course I had to be 

dragged there because it

was Starbucks.

okay-I might have lied

about the dragging part-

Then a salad on the bench...

And dinner divine...

After dinner there was 

another small payoff.

Now, are you wondering

if we got any gardening done?

Well, folks,

you will just have to come

back again, won't you?

You won't be disappointed...

because it is going to 

include a bicycle and spray paint.

And, NO, I am NOT

going to be pedaling 

my butt all over town,

but thanks for asking!
