Spring Cleanup

Yes. Sadly it is that time of year again.

I spent about seven hours of the day yesterday doing this semi-unpleasant task.

I enjoy it for the most part.

What I don't enjoy is finding all those little projects that will have to go on the 'to do' list for the season.

And there's always a lot of those.

The enjoyable part is finding out how all of the little plantlings are doing, and watching the spring bulbs appear overnight and blossom.

Today will be mostly a chore.

Why?

Because a wicked wind is blowing and my nice, lightweight brown paper yard waste bag will be flying all over the place.

I will spend much time muttering curses under my breath.

But...at least I will be outside on a warm spring day watching the little jewels of the garden emerge.
