Default motivation

The message
from Kay Easton contains these words:

ok,

How do I motivate myself to go out and remove them weeds when it was
hailstones here earlier on and is still freezing?


By telling yourself that it will be even colder come Tuesday?

The weeds are mostly dandelion, is it worth taking them out now


No, they will still regrow. They are impossible to get rid of.


Loosen the earth round them and pull them out. As long as you get the
tap root out they won't come back. I scrub and dry them and when I have
enough, lightly roast them and add them to ground roasted pearl barley
to make a pleasant dring like a cross between Barley Cup and chickory.

or will they
die with the winter frost?

Not a hope!


No indeed. It's a perenniel weed. I use the flowers for making country
wine - if I get round to it. Some of my best friends are weeds...
