Thanks for the concern, everyone. I think I'll live!
My hand is bruised, and one shoulder is achey.
But with the help of some painkillers, I managed to get the last of the PNW order in the ground!
I realized today that there is an analogy to my iris lust - it's my eyes are bigger than my stomach !
Meaning that it has dawned on me that I may want more irises, but the taking care of them
is concerning me. I have so much weeding to do! And I can't afford a gardener. Hubs is back at his part-time job teaching art to the elementary school students. So, falling has decisively brought down the curtain on my
iris-acquisitive nature. No more this year. Absolutely. But I sure am looking forward to spring!!
