i'm glad this spring has had a slow (probably normal) and steady arrival. the daffodils are popping...they are so cute (only 6" tall). it's been sunny and cool...perfect weather for cleaning up the yard and preparing it for summer. had a fire in the pit over the weekend, burned the xmas tree branches and sang 'oh christmas tree' all the while it was popping and snapping!...planted my rose bush and it looks like it is going to be happy in it's new home..everyday i check it out it grows a little bit more.....yesterday was sunny and cool with a good breeze and i was able to dig out some daylilies, sea holly and yarrow that found new homes by themselves, divided them and put them in pots so at least i can give them away to anyone who wants them. did a quick check of perennials and am happy with their progress.....i did get a wonderful gift.....a friend from the country came into visit and brought me a large tote filled with horse manure....(old stuff...it doesn't even have an odor anymore) i was happy to say the least.....my garden is going to be very happy this year....and there is more to come....actually i can have as much as i want.....how nice.....maybe i'll give them some of my plants as a thank you. rain today, which is good..makes you slow down and think and plan.
