Janie, let me know the brand. I have a variety of gloves around here for various tasks. A bunch of soft brown cotton ones for simple protection, but if there is something leather that will fit close enough so I can get a grip when I'm weeding, it would be worth the price. My hands are a mess right now, especially the insides of my thumbs.

I'm making progress in the garden. I'm finding things that need transplanting because they came back in the wrong place. The veggie bed isn't to the full extension yet, as I planned it, but the existing portion is being filled in and mulched as I get it dug and amended. The front yard is mowed and trimmed, and tomorrow I'll mow the back. The trichogramma wasps have been put out and I'll spray beneficial nematodes this week. I picked up both of these a few weeks ago and they've been in my fridge since. I haven't have the occasion to put them out because the weather has been unusual this year, or at least, the timing on the calendar hasn't let me get out and work.
