ready to plant


Ooo I'm so ready to plant! It is to get to 28 outside today. I've been waiting to plant till after the May long wknd - in case of frost which I heard tell we may have on May 22nd - but frost be darned - plant I will! I can cover things! My plants in the front room window are all ready to jump outside! We've had to close the front window blinds to keep the house cool and well, the plants are not getting the sunny-sun-sun - I just may go and plant some up this morning! The heat will be so good for the little suckers.

Our front lawn will get a new life in the next couple of weeks (I hope). We've got a landscaper lined up and hopefully.......

We bought two rainbarrels on the weekend and Huzz installed one at the back of the house. That particular spot get lots of rain pooling when it pours so now we'll be able to save it and use it to water the garden. The other rainbarrel will go out front - tucked into the corner - we'll plant something (shrub) in front of it so that we don't look 'hillbilly'. That one will be great to use to water the front as our house is round the back and not as easy to take out to the front. OOo exciting!

Off to the greenhouse today. Expecting major hotness there. That humidity just kicks me in the nutters. It is hard to take and sucks the life out of me. So I'll do my best to keep hydrated and tuck into cooler spaces to rejuvenate myself.

Huzz's dad 'ViMo' goes for surgery on his knee on Thursday. B goes for eye surgery on Wednesday. Saying prayers for them.

Over and out you hoolies - the plants call me! Hugs all around......
