Putz Mission

On a mission w/conflicts----want to be out in the dirt---want to shop for plants--want to clean off the porch/deck---want, want, want--putz, putz, putz. (Sounds like a cheer---now all I need to add is a rah, rah, and a sis boom bah.)

Mass this AM, ran an errand, ate some more of  that oatmeal, put a load of clothes in the washer, and now gearing up to putz.

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

Love, Mom

Sun Up, Ma's Out...

Mass this AM, picked up a Sunday paper, took the car thru the car wash, ate some more of that wonderful oatmeal (hate to admit it but am actually taking an acquired liking to it--changed brands and finding it much improved--thanks Kat) and am planning on sitting on back deck w/cup of coffee, newspaper, and barking dogs. Always the barking dogs.

Going to start getting the deck furniture ready for "action" (AKA: lounging). Hoping to have all my outside lounging done before the KU/North Carolina BB game begins. Working on another quiet day.

FYI: Mass for our family this week at St. Patrick's on 03/27/2012 @ 8:00am. 

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

Love, Mom

Stocking up

(Compost/top/potting soil--note the little white bag leaning on the potting soil; a heavy duty old shower curtain. That is the most useful part of the project. The curtain fits perfectly in the storage portion of the HR. Saves clean up, and multi-purposeful for pulling the bags out w/ease and works as a cover to keep  the potting soil fresh.. nice. I carry it in a Ziplock bag in the car in case I need to make a stop at a garden nursery. )

Think the top soil/compost/potting soil will do me for a while. Filled in some low areas, pulled weeds, and scattered Preen over the bare spots/no weed zones in flower garden yesterday. Luv having extra(s) garage space to stack my planting supplies. Taking a break today---just to take in the wonderful sunshine, blue skies...

Mass this afternoon/evening. Nap for sure, read----just chill.

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

The Dirt

Mass this AM, ran errands, picked up some groceries and 400 lbs of top soil. No rain today, sun trying to come out from the clouds. Guess who is planning to play in the dirt today?---Yep, Moi.

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

Stocking up

Shopping/buying mulch, potting/top soil. Rainy day. Nice soft rain. Everything looks different everyday, plants popping out of ground, trees greening up/blooming----just luv Spring.

Had a busy weekend, The Saturday St. Pat's Church party went well, was home early. Dinner at St. Joseph Church on Sunday for their annual German sausage fund raiser. Looking forward to eating at home for the rest of the week.

Mass this AM, shopped to pick up the potting soil, home to play/snuggle w/the "boys, read, and getting ready to watch DWTS this evening.

Stay healthy, safe, and keep in touch.

Love, Mom
