ahhhhh SPRING!!!

Ok…so I jumped the gun a bit earlier…but our spring if here!  No ifs ands or buts…it is here and the cold is gone!  It is 80 out there today and just gorgous!!  Since my surgery I have been feeling sooo much better and yesterday was my first day back to good old me…even my dear hubby was excited…You see I’ve spent months stuck inside miserable…so yesterday I informed him we would be outside working on the front bed, the only thing that could stop me was rain…well…no rain!  So that front bed…about 20 feet long and about 5 feed deep…got tackled…It hadn’t been touched since we moved in so the soil was pretty yucky!!!  So we transplanted the spirea that was there down between the yard and the tree line.  Which it looks much better there incedently…ok, so maybe I just think so.  I’m not one for formal gardens and that front bed was screaming it..so out with the old..(just moved remember)  and in with new!  And look what I have coming!

Petal Pusher Roses

Yes I know they won’t look that good at first…they are coming bare root…which scares me to death but I have two rose aficionados in our neighborhood, one that is related to me, so I’m hoping they can help me on the making sure I don’t kill them deal!  I searched and searched for a rose that was an easy keeper..and yes I know..roses are not notorious for being easy, but I’m determined :)   So I got down and dirty in some cow and mushroom compost and picked out all the nasty weeds and rocks and mixed away…So now we have a raised bed that is filled with nutrient abundance!  I’m overly thrilled that I now have a bed that is dying to have plants in it but more than anything I’m more excited that I was able to enjoy doing it!!!  It has been a long time and it was dearly missed…I know..give me a little longer and all that grueling work will change my opinion but for now I’m gonna waller in the sun dirt and LOVE it!  That all being said…I’m BACK yall!!  so you’ll here from me more :)

On the computer front..well..I still need a new one…and I’m looking…thanks to the government and the stimulus deal with taxes I will be able to get something…it may not be a screamer but I think I can get something that will function!!  I mean come on…not even being able to check my e-mail…that is TORTURE!!!

So for the time being you will be inundated with pictures from my little emerging garden and beautiful outdoors till I can give you eye candy on the scrapping front :)

Later for now everyone!!  See you soon!
