Almost busted tonight.
A few weeks ago I was mentioning to my neighbor that SWMBO and I have a difference of opinion about the privet hedge that I planted unwittingly a couple of years ago. I had ordered something else and got these which were mislabelled.
I hate this hedge and intend to plant bush cherries there next spring.
SWMBO is not down with any part of this plan. In front of the inchling I told my friend that I would just swap the bush cherries for the privets when SWMBO was away for the weekend or something. If she noticed, I'd just tell her that I had pruned the privets and that's why they looked like two year whips.
Tonight at dinner inch3 says:
"We should dig the pribbits. In the springtime."
Blank look from me.
Mom: "Yeah, and maybe we can go in a boat in the springtime."
I know eventually she'll come around to the bush cherries, I just don't want to wait until that happens to plant them, they take a few years to bear.
