Array ( [sid] => 63957 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => What A Gardening Sight... [time] => 2004-09-16 10:07:25 [hometext] => has anything like this ever happened to you? [bodytext] => balancing on a log to do some weeding
I find my nose is cut and bleeding
too busy to stop
I just dab it a on top
and continue my gardening this evening

digging some holes
for the plants to grow on poles
I slip and fall in the mud
I land with a thud
break my thongs and have to finish in my soles

I water the plants to begin
for they have to grow bushy not thin
my hair gets caught in the tap
I soldier on and stand in dogs c**p
I scrape off with a flat bit of tin

now I know I look a sight
but I want to garden, right!
so I tidy my tools away
looking terrible I must say
I hear a car park and think who is calling tonight?

I try to hide
but my hubby is inside
and answers she's out the back "she'll be happy to see ya"
no time for washing, ha!
Oh Suzi *blushing* havn't seen ya since I was a bride!

Oh how I LOVED THIS!!! when I was 8 mos pregnant and looking like sh**T, my husband brought one of my old boyfriends over...I hadn't seen him since school... I wanted to crawl into a hole and die...not only did I look like a watermelon but ..no make-up, hair un done...still having morning noon and night time too sickness.. This was a GREAT poem. Thanks sooooo much....
