I know the feeling. I worked for 3 days on just one of my beds. I have a total of 10 gardens and can't seem to get them all cleaned up at one time. Right now the only clean gardens are the rose garden, herb garden and the flag pole/butterfly/humming bird garden. The latter is the one that I worked for 3 days on. Wouldn't have taken so long except I worked around and left the echinacia for the yellow fenches. The gardens are why I end up doing tomatoes AFTER supper. Then, I really am tired.
