Busy Days

 We have had a long, cold spring. This week I'm trying to get ahead in my game as warm weather is about to come charging in. Each morning I haul potted plants out as they get hardened off in preparation for planting.

The downstairs front porch is all glasses, so flowers are hanging out there, in wait.

It looks like last night was our last below freezing threat, but I'm still being cautious.

We went to town yesterday and bought more garden stuff. I still want more annuals!

This morning we were on a house cleaning frenzy. I had planned to do an intensive vacuuming this afternoon, but put that on hold until tomorrow. I got out and did more transplanting and soil remediation. I took 8 packets of mixed annual seeds and scattered them on a fresh swath of good earth across the front field. What survives, survives and flourishes. It is supposed to give us a good rain over the next couple of days so I was anxious to get that plot going.

I had a mishap with my laptop last week  so my time online has been kind of restricted for a few days. Perhaps a sign to leave it and get things done? A new laptop has arrived but I just don't have the time to really set it up right now.

So we Canadians have our first long weekend of the "summer" approaching. The campers and holiday makers will be out in force enjoying cottage country. We are staying home to host a bbq for family and friends because my birthday is later this month.
