I was looking for the maintenance crew of our subdivision if one of them could help me with weeding outside our perimeter fence but one of our neighbors said that the management of Midtown removed them. I am willing to pay their daily wage. Sad, for the plight of those who really need help to make both ends meet.
So I started uprooting and weeding unwanted grass early this morning. It still needs a little improvement. I was able to transfer some snake plants though. Snake plants are so costly here, around P250 to P300 per pot. Sometime last week, a lady older than I am just uprooted some without asking for permission. I hate it when people are so presumptuous, that is equivalent to stealing, right? I was in the garden pruning some plants when she passed by. Years ago, we used to have climbing roses in that area but every time they bloom, some passersby even bring scissors to harvest the flowers. So annoying.
My news feed is full of unwanted sites posting some titles of books listed this year as worth-reading. Haven’t heard most of their recommendations. Even those which won at Goodreads are so unfamiliar to me. I have two books in mind though to cap off the year 2020.
These have been on my TBR for more than a couple of years now. They’re next. Their Eyes Were Watching God is a 1937 novel which is considered as a classic of the Harlem Renaissance. A Wild Sheep Chase is my first book of Murakami.
Have a lovely and blessed weekend to all of you.
I hope you get your gardening help

That’s awful that people steal plants you put out. That happens here in cities, but not usually in towns.

Yes, really annoying if I must say. Why don’t they plant their own?

It’s easier and cheaper to steal. They think only of themselves, not how other people feel. Sadly, I don’t think people are taught right from wrong these days. They’ve thrown God aside and never feel guilt.

That’s really sad. They don’t feel any guilt doing it

I harvest from hedgerows on the sides of rows, weeds though, I am bold about weeds, but would never take from someone’s garden or near their home. Even if I take a bit of moss from the woods I always make sure it is not along the path where it might mar the beautiful sights of those walking.

Sides of the road…is what I meant…wrote row twice. When am I going to learn to proofread before I hit post…hmmmm…probably never.
