Spring Parody: Saws and Weed Killer

If you take a woman’s bow saw,

She won’t be able to cut back the overgrown rose bush.

Overgrown flowerbed with poison ivy.
Do you see a problem here?

If she can’t cut back the overgrown rose bush, she won’t be able to properly weed the flowerbed.

If she can’t properly weed the flowerbed, it will become overgrown with a wild assortment of domesticated and feral plants.

Then.

When.

She finally finds her bow saw, and goes out to trim the rose bush,

Much clearer in this image.

She will discover that she’s going to want some weed killer to go with it.

(sigh)

Wishing you all the right tools and ingredients to do whatever you need to do, today.
