all in the golden afternoon

my baker's muscles are turning into gardener's muscles. I almost broke my wrist/hand the other day when I encountered a particularly strong weed and fell backward onto some concrete :/
ouchy, I know. yard work is dangerous!
I'm trying to clear out our front plant area (I can't call it a garden because it's NOT) so that I can plant some poppies. I love poppies. I want them to go to seed and cover the entire front yard so our neighbors can complain about what a mess we are. haha
oh, so yeah I was working in the front yesterday and found a SNAKE skin. from a SNAKE. I don't know if it lives in our weeds, but I'm really careful now when I disturb the area...

AND I'm pretty sure the bees are out to get me. they fly a reasonable distance away but I can tell that they're just waiting for the perfect moment to go buzzing by my ear and make me drop my trimming sheers on my foot
