They’re either occupations or household chores

Sometimes it just feels good to go and plant another tree. I never considered taking care of the grounds a chore or an occupation, more like a pleasant way to spend some time.

Now, gardening per se, I can see how it can be wussified, however, being able to grow one's own food sufficiently to sustain one's self and family, I can get behind, manly or not.

Afer all, need some veggies along side the venison on the plate.

To: going hot

Its always been a chore for me ... but, maybe its just me, or maybe its because I live in Houston and it is typically 98 degrees and 100% humidity whenever I have to do lawn work. Car repair, I’m fine with ... but I’d rather pay someone to do the lawn.
