This time, I was armed with a plan and fresh from my victory over the first wave of weeds a few weeks back. But those pesky plants had a few weeks to strategize too! They'd sprouted into giants, sprawling across the ground and throwing my initial plan out the window.

No worries though, I adapted! I grabbed my trusty trimmer (from last time) and a pair of secateurs for good measure. A garden rake became my new best friend for gathering the fallen foes.

Green bags were the first choice for weed disposal, but to cover more ground quickly, I ended up with a respectable weed mountain. The garden's not weed-free yet, but it's a world better than where we started!

The best part? Mrs. M. absolutely loved the progress. That kind of appreciation really fuels the volunteer spirit! And if there's another weed-wrangling mission, sign me up! I'm ready to tackle anything Mrs. M.'s garden throws my way.
