You exhaust me Woman, LOL! The only good thing about this situation is that it’s YOU and not ME! ;)

I’ve shared with you MY ‘moving adventures.’ We had a City House and a Farm to sell when we decided to set up shop together. 50+ trips to St. Vinnie’s to drop off 30+ years of accumulated ‘stuff’ and a long Summer spent painting and landscaping The City House, then a long Fall-into-Winter replacing toilets, the water heater, the sump pump and making the attic BAT-PROOF before I could sell my little farm.

It’s your turn in the barrel, Girlfriend, LOL! :)

P.S. Take it easy! Don’t rush! Quit falling down! We need you here! :)

I took advantage of this rainy day and 'pottered' in my Greenhouse. Moved the Kale out there as it's indestructible, and potted up DAHLIAS to get them off and running in my short growing season. these are just 'cheapies' I bought when we were at Menard's on Friday, but the tubers all looked very healthy and were already sprouting. Beau was buying, so I sneaked a lot of stuff into the cart when he wasn't looking, LOL!

No real 'color theme,' here. I. Like. Bright! I did grow 'Night Queen' last season and she was spectacular. :)

Worked from 11 until 6 - not a cloud in the sky for most of the day. After about an hour, the fleece jacket & flannel shirt were hanging in a nearby tree .... aaahhhh, T-shirt weather at last!!

Would you believe ... STILL not finished? I did some 'extra' work & severely trimmed up the holly tree & cut down some massive pine branches that took a while to cut into manageable lengths.

I really need the trailer up here - the 'sled' holds about half of what I can pack in the trailer. The tires need tubes ... been there, done that so maybe I can get it done this coming week.

Some scenes from 'The Lawn':


The big branch in the middle broke off one of the trees. This is the end remnant - the rest of the branch with many smaller limbs was the big mess to clean up


Three debris piles & one holly pile after trimming.


The mower has been a 'champ' - couldn't do this without it.
