stubbed toes and mud pies

[flowerbug]

as expected the new toy is not something that Mom will be able to use reliably. we will try the string trimmer attachment next to see if Mom will use it (i bet not as long as i'm around to do it instead) and if so i will have to content myself with picking up bits of plastic string the rest of my life.

ok, not so gloomy after all, bio-degradeable trimmer line is available...

we do have peas/pea pods out there for picking but i've not been back that far in that garden enough to get many eaten or picked. the one pod i sampled was good.
