My husband is 'way too cute to abandon for weeding, much as I love it outside early in the a.m. So glad I found this website. I tried writing you after I read your book but your publishers never responded to my email. Dear Christine, It is important to take advantage of opportunity as it presents itself. The weeds will wait until you get to them.
Men tend to wander off after a couple of hours.
I enjoy weeding also. It is an aspect of gardening that many people consider to be a necessary evil, a chore. I sort of like attacking a big patch of weedy perennials. It all looks so marvelous when I'm finished. As you know, I twist weeds in my hands and use them as mulch around the perennials.
