I am taking a break from staging an emergency intervention. The flower bed near the office door has strawberries plants popping out and setting blooms. Unfortunately, they are being engulfed by a prolific and non-descript ground cover that I find of no interest whatsoever. In order to do this chore once and not twice, requires combing the dirt and pulling out every piece of this weed and it's roots that you can find. I'd much rather have the berries take off than this uninvited guest take over. We are prepping our garden to be on our neighborhood tour this coming weekend- and today feels as good as any to tackle this chore. (plus a good opportunity to daydream as I work.)
