It's the first of the month … GOOPs Day. For those unfamiliar, GOOPs stands for Gardening Oops. GOOPs Day occurs on the first of each month when I confess a gardening blunder hoping my words might prevent you from repeating my faux pas. Then I ask you to humbly confess one of your GOOPs.
Welcome to March 2011 … just 19 days till Spring.
Welcome February … the month I'd like to settle into winter suspended animation. Tucked nicely into my house-cocoon I'd immerse my thoughts deeply into my gardens, visualizing, creating, and revising ideas for improved soils, better perennial combinations, new shrubs, and fresh-picked sun-drenched vegetables and berries.
Wow, talk about sneaking up on me. Last night I went to bed with my head still firmly planted in November. This morning I awoke to December. How did the last month of 2010 sneak up on me? I'm not prepared for winter's chill or winter's snow and this is my confession, my gardening faux pas, my Gardening Oops or GOOPs for short. Today, being the first of December, marks my day to share a gardening blunder, or in the case of this month, a gardener's procrastination.
