I’m going to the Plant Sale at the Morton Arboretum later this week – which is a sure sign of spring even though it’s a bit on the chilly side this week! I’m looking to replace some shrubs that were eaten to death by rabbits last summer. And we’ll see what else strikes me as good for my yard while I’m there.
I’m really sad that the shrubs got eaten to death. I sprayed them with repellent and put down crystals that were supposed to keep the rabbits away, but nothing seemed to stop them! Last summer I was particularly vigilant with my gardening since the bed was a new addition at the side of my new patio. The plan was for that bed was for flowering plants that would provide perfume to the patio all summer. The shrubs were flowering and I planted lavender around them. At least the lavender survived?
Job hunting is a little bit like my planting plan. I tended my job and it flowered – for me and my team. But my job was “eaten by bunnies” and now I’m looking for a replacement. That hopefully I’ll be able to tend and get to flower again for years to come.
I know – this is a TORTURED analogy. But I am a good gardener and I’m really looking forward to smelling the new flowers later this spring.
