    Good evening all! We actually got a bit of sun today. Eventhough it was only 45F, it felt closer to 65 if you just soaked it in for a while. :D

    Good evening! Hope some of you got to garden today, it kept switching from rain to snow up here in the great wet north. Not too bad, I got to go hang out with my aunt for part of the afternoon. She lives on a part of the old family homestead, in a little cabin my uncle built jutting out from the side of a high hill, with an incredible view of the Black Hills all around... and the snow falling wetly...

    Good evening everyone! I'm in Southern ME and we had snow 3/4 of the day too. But I spent the morning stewing and the afternoon sewing which is fine with me. Of course I had many interuptions because my 4 year old DD is always in need of something. She's such a joy. I'm signing off soon so everyone enjoy their evening!

    Good evening y'all. Lazy Sunday, band practice later. I thought I'd get to wash my car *FINALLY*, but the weather can't decide between sun, slush and hail today. Oh well, people are probably getting used to me driving a tan car instead of a white one anyway.

    Good evening all. It is raining buckets outside!! The snow is disappearing at a fast rate and the sump pump is working harder than ever before. Weatherman says we will have torrential rain all night as well as thunderstorms. This could get scary! My lawn is already under water!
    One good thing is that I'm on the highest land around here so that thought should help me sleep tonight.(I hope!)

    Wow, This seemed like a long day basically not doing nothing. My daughters girlscout troop had their cookie booth to sell girlscout cookies. All I had to do is sit and help. I don't understand how I can be so tired from just doing basically nothing.

    Good evening all, I've been busy today. Turn-out-weekend at the stables, both horses to exercise and a birthday party to attend. I was an hour late, nothing new there. The day started with snow, but the sun came out and made it disappear, so now it's just wet. It's 20.00 and still proper daylight out there. I do love this time of year!

    Good evening, can't understand where this day went. We've nearly had sunshine today, and temps around 10 deg C/50 deg F. I haven't managed to do half of what I should, but I have enjoyed doing what I've done, so that should be alright then. :D

    Good Evening all. I spent 5 hours out in the yard again today. I got a tiny bit started on the front garden, had to water the ground to make it soft enough to work but overwatered and it turned into a muddy mass when I tried to start weeding.

    Well, looking out our windows to the west shows a blackening sky and that ain't from the sun going down. :eek:
    Heavy storms moving our way again this week. Tornadoes forming about an hour west of us and all this mess will be over us in less than two hours. Thankfully the really heavy stuff appears to be heading north.
    Hmmmmmm, deja vu all over again.

    Well after finishing up with a friend on her dog grooming,- I was able to spend some time cleaning the leaves out of the garden. counted 5 or more frogs in my pond so far and seen the fish swimming around. cleaned up the herb garden and my strawberry patch. Much work still awaits in between the rain drops.

    Well I had one busy day. Cleaned up the front yard. I now can see where I have many plants coming thru. Irises, tulips, lillies, hostas, hibiscus, my hydrenga bush has new leaves, also my new lilac has beginning leaves. Its so exciting to see plants come alive in the spring. After all that, I then took a long walk with my oldest daughter. I should sleep good tonight after a long day.
