But something, some virus, has my immune system responding in overdrive. It kept me off the radio yesterday, and kept me from finishing off the gardening project.
The back yard had, in 6 years, gone from tended garden to primeval weeded wilderness. So, in the first, tentative attempts to reclaim this piece of land for civilization, I planted some lilacs along the north fence. (No, not this, lilacs, silly.)
Before:
After:
Of course, the soak hose is part of the sprinkler system, which the maintenance guy is coming to look at tomorrow morning. Fortunately, just as my buying a condo was enough to burst the late-80s DC housing bubble, my planting lilacs was enough to bring on a hail storm last night.

Ooh! Lilacs will be perfect for along a north fence in your area!
I've heard the weather has been really nice there and it wouldn't surprise me if allergies might be a bit to blame for making you feel drained.
Feel better and happy gardening! :)
