While cleaning out the back 'almosta' room, I came across and abundance of seeds.
Apparently I am a hoarder of seeds and didn't realize it.
I have now located all seed packets past and present. I have an ice cream bucket full of them.
Combine that with all of the perennials that I have yet to dig up before the remodeling starts and those I gave away, it is a wonder that I should even have a yard.
Well this year I am sharing my seeds and my neighbor is getting quite a few perennials as we thought sharing would be fun.
I know some of the seeds are old but I'll plant them anyway and see what happens.
I finally got some Stella Doros to plant. I have always loved their cheery blossoms in the summer.
I look out my window at the place where we have our garden. Last year it was used as a pumpkin/squash patch and not weeded. It looks like it will be an intimidating job to clean up and plant.
I am hopeful though. I have beets, lettuce, and green beans to plant.
Of course then reality hits. I have a mess in the driveway from the last big snow fall, I had raked and cleaned the yard already once and now need to do this task again.
It looks rather daunting. I started work on it again yesterday until the rain/snow/sleet forced me back inside.
After it quit, I went out to do some more work. Alas the mess had turned to muck and there was no raking or shoveling it. It needs to dry out again.
Then there is hubby who is finishing up cleaning up the Dexters's summer pasture. We spent a whole day picking up the last remnants of stumps and debris that we intended to take care of last year before he had to go through cancer treatment.
This section was the messy area. The tree stumps are those left over from trees that were damaged in a bad storm.
It has taken us quite a while to get it all cleaned up.
The rest of the cow pasture is in good shape.
As soon as this weather breaks, it looks like I'll be back to fence repair in the Merry Meadow. The deer and coyote have busted some of the electric line on the second wire. We have brush piles to burn and more trimming to do.
Oh.
That is to be done while we are remodeling, and somehow I need to stick gardening in there also.
Hmmm. Don't forget work!
Looks like a very busy spring.
I love the photo of the pasture...the Dexters must love it. Gary is way ahead on the yard clean up compared to the past, but this snow along with up and down temperatures is driving us nuts. We are loaded with all kinds of seeds too, and a friend has started our onions sets (greenhouse). Isn't it nice to have your husband more active after last year? I hope he is doing well.
ReplyDeleteAngel is slightly better. At least she is moving around now.
