I got my hands dirty from weeding, at first in Vladika Lazar’s little garden, then the pots and containers in front of the main building. These areas were watered first, so that pulling out the weeds was not difficult. If only it were possible to regain the strength I had even a decade ago, but I am grateful that I can still putter about, as they say. A light sprinkling of rain throughout the day was followed by a sudden downpour that must have soaked both man and beast, anyone who was outside and could not quickly find any shelter.
