It's sunshine here today, it's 76, nice breeze..filled my morning at the plant sale..yikes brought 60 home and 1 flowering almond shrub..then Greg dropped in, took me to town and picked up 15 bags of soil, more manageable for me to handle, we did the seat for his chop bike, last piece he needed to finish..said he'd come back tomorrow and fix the front door screen that the dog clawed during the storm, fix my water hose..nice to have a helpful son..

We need rain as well...grass is dying..am hoping once I add the earth to the upper sandy part of the lawn I'll be able to grow some grass..I've been watering an awful lot not sure it's helping the grass but my plants are starting to come alive..

Carol, it must be so frustrating for you with the snow..is this the latest you've ever had snow? please/please don't send it my way..understand from the weatherman this morning that you'll be in the 20's next week ..sure must be playing havoc with the gardens and hanging plants..
