It does seem a bit odd for a dress code where you stand every likelyhood of getting muddy at one point or another. I don't blame you!
Nice job on the garden. I know how you feel about the snails, but for me, it's slugs! They can destroy so quickly what we labor over! I hope they leave your garden alone as well.
So sad about the school and so unnecessary.
Your dinner looks nice and healthy, and I am sure after a good night's sleep, you'll feel better in the morning. Take care @lightsplasher!
