A Gardener wants us...

Hooray, I just got a message from a gardener that he will take us on. (Hard to find a reputable gardener accepting new clients.) Gardening is very big in Victoria and ugh we have a lot of plants. Apparently even bamboo!

My neighbours will no longer refer to us as "the new people, the ones with the unsightly yard".

I had to cancel my house cleaners to afford the gardener so we may now be "You know, the new people, who can't invite anyone in because they have a messy house".
