When I am sure it is over, I will fill my front flower bed with as many blooms as I can. My sons hate going to Olive's, Lowe's, Home Depot, or any store with plants. I can spend hours going up and down the aisles looking at all the plants, reading the tags, grouping them together on the cart to see how they look, planning the planting in my head the whole time. I can honestly say I love working in my yard. I love digging in the dirt, weeding the flower beds, mulching the plants, fertilizing, watering, mowing. I get such a great sense of accomplishment every time I come home, and I see all my flowers blooming, trees growing, bushes ..... No matter how bad my day has been just seeing my yard makes me smile. I can sit and relax for hours watching the birds feed at the feeders, hummingbirds take their turns at the bushes planted just for them. So Spring - could you come sooner rather than later?
Ugh! dirt under my fingernails, sweating while mowing, bugs swarming about my head....I hate yardwork!
