    I was outside putting plant food on the roses and little evergreens. The roses have small red leaves popping out. I trimmed back some branches but didn't get finished because it started raining on me. I did finish watering the bushes, etc. because I doubt it will rain enough to do the job. I moved all my plants that were inside for the winter outside and watered them good too. I couldn't work on my new flowerbed because the ground was too hard to dig the grass out of it. I watered it down good too. I watered the hostas that I planted a couple of weeks ago. I have one daffidol blooming but it's wee little. It must have been in a hurry for sping, too. Dooley

    I was right. It stopped and it's all dry again. Dooley

    It did that to us Thursday, not even enough to do any good. First too much rain, now not any. Oh well, that's nature.

    It can be so frustrating when mother nature doesn't co-operate! Hope you get a good rain soon.

    Don't send any of that rain over here just yet Zuzu please. We've just repaired the flat roof and the liquid rubber needs time to set. :rofl:
