|
I was outside pruning my roses in some very comfortable jogging pants. The sun was shining the birds were singing. Neighbors drove by and waved.
I was in a particularly tight spot actually surrounded by rose bushes on all sides. When I would stoop to trim the one in front of me I would be stuck in the hinnie by one of the bushes on the side or back of me.
After a couple of expected ouches and ohhhs, I pruned away. On one particular bend I got a rather painful stick in the rear that was very painful and surprising. My voluntary responses kicked in and up I jumped.
LEAVING my pants and undies (it was a fierce thorn an old bugger)behind at the stooped position. Well it was a battle royale tring to claim my my coverings back while continually being stuck in ever changing, ouching positions. The naked ordeal went on for a while and I have the scratches to show for it.
Once my pants were back on I had to laugh. How hilarious my dark brown bum had to be in the thorny rose dance of desperation for clothing. I have never been so one with nature--all nat-u-ral.
I don't think my garden moon would qualify as porn but it would be a tragic comedy.
Has nature ever claimed your clothing and have you ever had a garden moon? Keep it clean Gardenstewers:)

 Oh I have a stitch in my side now imaging you 'mooning'and desperately trying to make yourself decent again!!!
I've never had a garden moon thankfully as my rear end isn't fit to be seen even in clothes. 
The worst I've ever done was throw off my T.shirt and bra when I wasp disappeared down my front. Ian thought it was hilarious as I pranced around the garden, jiggling my boobs, waving my arms about and slapping at my chest. I just hope none of the neighbours saw me.

That is an image that needed to be shared. I can imagine and the neighbors would not have turned their heads. Hopefully there was no damage to your chest as you tried to kill the molesting wasp.
So cute and so funny.

 It's probably not nice to laugh, but I just have to! Those stories are so funny.
I have a scar that's nearly 3 inches, over 7 cm long, running down the inside of my right upper arm. I was pruning, and suddenly one of the rose bushes thought it was enough. I call it self-defense.

lol!!!! ohh my goodness this is funny! Fortunately i have never had to do any of those things to save myself from nature itself. Just the occasional small cut or stab from a thorn. Altho i have lost a hat to a tree. the trees up here in the artic are small an if your not careful they will just whip your face an scratch it all up. The tree took my hat, an i took it back.
I was just wondering, D2D are you going to post your eveidence. Since you won the fight, that makes you bad,( you know cool),, maybe you should of called this thread,,, Bad Moon Rising!!!!

Biita, Bitta,Bitta, you can make funny even funnier. My first thought was to take a picture but my kids keep my camera ran down. I am going to get better at my picture taking because all champs need publicity:)
The trees taking your hats is funny too. There is the unexpected in our gardens all of the time.
In olden times, the children were sent outside to get their own switches for a whipping (according to my mother) your trees voluntarily decide when to whip (spank you).

Sorry, I don't mean to laugh d2d! I can just imagine what went on...I've been trapped in shrubs and roses before, but they have never kept my pants! And Eileen, I couldn't help but laugh at your story too. Gee, my gardening experiences seem so uneventful now...just a few thorns and scratches.

I couldn't help but laugh as I know how d2d and Eileen felt.I have done the strip and mooned neighbors more than once. Texas is well noted for fire ants and the sneeky little devils
get up my pants and you don't know it until I sware they count to three and sting all at once.When that happens you will strip and moon the world.Then streak into the house for more clothes and poison.It has happened in my yard more than once.
I'm glad my neighbors don't live real close to me

Glenda, that would be a sight for sore eyes
You have to have experienced a fire ant attack to understand. Those little  hurt and hurt bad. And if you are really allergic to them, you can be in big trouble. I got into a fire ant bed and was stung just three places on the top of my foot. A week later the skin was peeling off 
Sorry I really got off the subject here

That is exactly what I thought, and was so looking forward to. A beautiful picture of a full moon over a luscious garden.
