Once again I was attacked in my garden by so many biting bugs and now bad weather is upon us, plus, I seemed to have re-torn my right shoulder in my sleep. That injury is 12-years-old. My wounds never really heal.
As a result, I am going to leave it up to my new garden fairies to protect my garden. This one is in charge of my pumpkins.
I did have to spray off the aphids from my mock orange which seems to have helped but now it is up to this fairy to watch out over this special bush for me.
My hydrangeas are just outstanding this year, must be all that amazing sunshine we have gotten this summer. They are doing well in spite of my neglect.
It is becoming clear to me that my body is struggling extra hard and I am getting into a danger zone. I have been plagued with nightmares, sudden losses of consciousness probably due to low blood pressure and now muscle tearing in my sleep. This is not good.
There are thunderstorms coming today so I think I will rest, ice my shoulder, take ibuprofen and let my garden be. I have no idea how people do this kind of work on a regular basis. I have to let my garden be wild, I do not have enough strength to take care of it.
It is clear to me that when I go back home, outdoor maintenance will not be on my priority list. When I go back, I will go back either completely wild or urban. In the wild woods or in the city.
Today, I am in the ugly burbs resting, hoping my shoulder comes back to me.
