A WILD COUPLE OF WEEKS!!

AAARGH!!! There were supposed to be lots of spaces in this to make for easy reading, but stupid EBlogger doesn't seem to be co-operating! Yep ~ It has been just that! And the main reason is I had to do a lot of catching up in the garden, due to my earlier foot surgery... So I've been bringing all my garden pretties out of winter garage storage, getting them cleaned up & in place ~ Planting out our collection of blue pots for the front of the house ~ Planting seeds from packets that attract hummingbirds and flutterbyes ~ they are coming up nicely ~ Trimming the roses that were hit very hard by our arctic month of January; tying up our spindly looking clematis' that I really didn't think had made it. (they did, and bloomed wonderfully)... Rejuvenating my fairy garden container; getting our tomato plants going; killing spring weeds... I've also been having a ton of fun with my crafty friends... Going to the Boise Farmer's Market for the first time (for me) with MH & CS ~ WOW!! We had a blast! A shopping date & lunch with JJ ~ A 'junking' trip with LS (we both scored LOT'S of goodies!) I've loved it all, though at times I've been SO tired!! So now I'm taking a much needed break... then back to work this weekend!!

It was a fun trip to Saturday Mkt and more fun times ahead.
Garden work for me today. Edged more of the front area but more to do in the AM. It never ends but I so enjoy it. Rest up!

Hugs,

Bobbie, small world we have here in this huge blogasphere. Imagine all of the people, besides you and I, waiting for the new G45 collections? I'm getting downright testy. Reading about your sis and Jazzercise recalled some of my best memories. I jazzercised for years myself; doing it brought tears of joy to MY eyes. Recently I've done Zumba for a couple years, though now that I'm 65 and Zumba not taught nearby, I'm slowing down to a 3x weekly senior exercise class. Those high aerobic workouts are a blast. 'Bye for now. Charlotte

Isn't it fun to get the garden in shape after winter! Mine is thriving this year, but the weeds seem to think they own the place.
