Out of hibernation
Officially went for my first spring walk. I think that the weather has turned the corner from winter and it's time to come out of my cocoon. Been a thoughtful 2 months. Lots to decide. Let's just say that my mind is on education and the next stage of my life.
More green leaves in the garden. Don't know if I will have that first bloom by April 1st, but there are contenders. Really would just prefer to have a nice healthy garden than anything else. We have trenches to dig again this year, but it's necessary. Too much history under some of the grass, and the ground desperately needs fluffing and TLC. Maybe the fam will get me top soil (my request) for Mothers' Day. It, along with compost, helps alot. Makes most plantings doable. Need to run a gravel stream next to the house so roof runoff has somewhere to go. It's practically made itself already so I'll just tidy it. This is the year for starting terraces and more shaping of beds. Also putting in a path in front of the porch, instead of the lilacs which are going to be a pain to move. We'll see about that later!
Well, time to go pick up photographs which I left lying around my living room. Organizing, you know. Spring gleaning, as it were.
