Well--I think I would put a frown on some faces--as just yesterday, I had my vein surgery.
Today--I was out in my yard for the first time cleaning up. Pruned all my Roses, and my Hellebores and raked a lot of leaves out of half of my beds. Bagged them and will put them out for trash.
Met my new neighbor-to-be (the next-door house finally sold). We chatted....He is from Pakistan--has 4 grown daughters--said he needed to expand the driveway (it is now a 2-car driveway) as he has SEVEN cars!!!!!! His favorite is his Mercades.......Hmmmmmm?????
Must be a big-shot business man! We will see....we will see......

Shar--I have nothing planned for the weekend. If the weather stays as nice as it is now, I will be doing a lot more yard clean-up. Also need to fertilize my lawn and seed the big circle left from when i cut down my dying Spruce Tree. It is about 12' in diameter.
I already have the seed bought! Just have to rake up that area and put some garden soil on top of it, as what is there now, is too much of the chips from having the stump all ground up. Also being it was an evergreen, the "soil" under it is probably way too acidic. I already put down some Lime and, hopefully, all the rains we have had--have washed it into the soil.


I won't be doing the Crab Grass prevention treatment--as if I do--I cannot seed my lawn for the rest of the year. A seed is a seed.....

AND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ta-Dahhhhhhh!!!! Today, I got some wonderful gifts from my SP!!!!!! I kind of know where they were sent from, but i will not say anything......

Thank you so much!!! I love doilies of all kinds! I will NEVER cut them up, or anything, to do my sachets!!!!!! NO! NO! Never! You crazy??????
Here is a picture of all my goodies.....Dancing with the Stars here.....:o))

Thanks--My SP!!!! Gita
