Norma's Garden Photos

Our next entry in the EIGHTH ANNUAL INFOMANIAC GARDEN PHOTOS EVENT is Miss Normadesmond. Give it to us, Norma.

Initially, I hired an experienced landscaper.

 Her continual raking annoyed me, so I found Duke on Craigslist.

An expert mower, I’m considering using him to plow this winter.

When Duke was busy with other tasks, the Mistress (!) pinch-hit with the mowing. Sweet of her, huh?


Ultimately, I hire all the work out & enjoy myself.
 
Fuck it, I’m worth it!

  1. You never looked lovelier, dear. Your bush needs a bit of pruning, though. Jx

    1. Conspiracy theories at Infomaniac?
      Sounds about right.

  5. Norma dear,

    Of lawn and garden,
    scratch and belch,
    beg your pardon,
    choke on felch.

    Your pearls be twisted,
    your hair askance,
    those dangling misters,
    hedge clipped your pants.

    And rightfully so,
    you giddy vamp,
    indirect access
    hides your tramp stamp.

    One in the back,
    and one up front,
    The World Health Organization,
    can be so blunt.

    Pendulous and craven,
    you echo and sway,
    bacterial mysteries,
    swim in your hay.

    The barn door is open,
    Geraldo's seen your vault,
    the rancor and rancid,
    bring the horny to a halt.

    You say your worth it,
    but we know what that means;
    call boys are wise,
    to cultivars in your jeans.

    Your garden's a mess,
    hazmet suits will atest,
    Sabin and Salk won't sample,
    what's under each breast.

    So attend your party,
    it's only for one.
    Toys you can burn,
    are your best bet for fun.

  6. Having a good staff is so very important to modern living.

    1. Like most of us, you need some boy butter... Jx

    2. It's partially hydrogenated! She won't put that artery clogging crap on her thighs.

    3. Boy Butter is Mr. DeVice's thing.

      Speaking of Mr. DeVice, it's not like him to miss a Garden Event. I know he had something BIG coming up soon so I suppose he must be off doing that.

    4. He's moving house.... apparently the new house has no chimney, so no sacks from Santa for Mr Devine this year!

    5. Of all the times for Mr. DeVice to move sticks. He'll have a lot of catching up to do here when he gets settled.

      His garden photos are next up. Should I post them soon or wait for his return?

      Delete
    6. Erm... I'd probably wait a bit. He'll probably turn up soon.
      Sx

    7. Best wait until Mr Device is back in the saddle again, so to speak.

      Delete
    8. Thanks for your input. I'll move along soon to the next entry, while we're waiting for Mr. DeVice.

  8. Wait until the staff rise up in revolution. Then you and your pearls won't be so sanguine, will you?

  9. I'm very concerned about the Mistress's footwear.... she would be better off wearing a pair of CROCS for riding the mower and especially for when riding the expert mower.
