6:00pm

I worked on some laundry today,

got dishes done, got my pantry tidied up

and gone through in the kitchen and the

one in the basement.  

For lunch I made leftover lasagna.

Even after lunch I had a couple pieces

leftover to put in the freezer to put back

for a couple work lunches for hubby.

Supper was a couple $5 Little Ceaser's pizzas.

Hubby worked 6.5 hours today.

In my down time I've been looking at

flowers and gardens online daydreaming

of warmer weather.

I don't think I'm going to do a full vegetable

garden this year.   I might do some veggies here and there,

not sure just yet .  I have 2 raspberry bushes to plant

in the spring and need to tend to my grapevine and pear trees.

I would love to do some strawberries but don't

know where to buy strawberry plugs.

I've found some on Ebay.

I've got my fingers crossed that 14 rose bushes

that I planted last year come to life this year.

And I still need to work on finding places

to plant all of the hydrangeas I got last year.

They are still in pots.

Everything is covered up.  In the Fall I blew all

the fallen leaves into the rose bed

to act as their Winter blanket.

I've been reading and thinking about possibly

doing a gutter garden with flowers and/or strawberries.

I had to give up on a lot of flowers or veggies

last year due to drought conditions. 

You just never know what to expect each year.

Would like to work more on planting

things that come back each year.

I always tell hubby not to buy me fresh cut flowers

for Mother's Day that I would rather

have something I can plant in the yard

and enjoy year after year.    

I have cabin fever and are ready to be able

to go outside and do something other than

freeze my rear end off.
