We Should Know Better
As seasoned gardeners - we should know better! But those warm days in early spring call to us like sirens to sailors, and they know we won't stay indoors and safe on our sofas.
It happens when we least expect it, because we're not thinking about it at all.
When we're armed with a rake and shovel, donning a hoodie and beanie, oscillating between tool cold or too hot, we leap into garden work like a child into a ball pit.
Only we discover hours later after a warm shower, that every muscle in our neck, upper back, middle back, shoulders, and arms are so sore, that we cringe at the thought of pulling a shirt over our heads and desperately search for our button up flannel.
