True fucking story nerds I’m depressed but working away in the garden I decide I’m finally gonna go that vegetable patch so LFG Willow, our terrier, is a part of my life so it has to be raised up off of the ground But I realize oh shit that is WAY more space than I have dirt to fill it 🤔 I notice that the neighbor’s garden has some bags of trash and since they have gardens fabric covering the whole thing those are prolly full of leaves from the big tree that drops every year So I bump into him at the grocery store and ask if it is so and it is and since it is I ask if I can have that trash for my garden and since it is trash to him and it is easier to toss over the fence to me than take to the trash adding that it is also valuable to me and less than worthless to him bada-bing bada-boom he comes out today to hand over the goods
