Friday found spring coming to New Hampshire. Temperatures soared into the 70’s and the sun shined down upon us!
Hubby has gotten the garden fertilized and also plowed the soil. I decided that despite the surgery I will still plant a garden! We will pick up our starter soil either today or tomorrow.
Once I am home from the hospital I will have Hubby set me up with a table, chairs, the soil, planters and seeds and I will get my plants going. As long as I have the plants going by the end of the month I’ll be okay.
So I went to bed last night and shortly after I did the rain began to fall and we had our first thunder storm. I lay there listening to the rain, thinking how nice it sounded after a winter of snow.
When I got up on Saturday morning, I looked outside and our previously winter brown grass had turned green! Yes, spring is here!
After watching nearly nonstop TV coverage of the terrorism suspects, on Saturday I used streaming TV to watch Anthony Bourdain’s “No Reservations” and “Love it or List It”. I simply need to get away from all the distressing news.
So, life is settling in to it’s usual pattern, and Hubby and I are enjoying the first hours of spring.
Saw an interesting trick on DIY. Put barrier cloth over the open side of a pallett, turn over, fill with soil and plant between the slats. Provides support for seedlings, keeps rows evn and identifiable. As for your other subject, little news coverage should be given on perps; focus, instead, on victims, care givers, first responders and law enforcement. Too much coverage for the perps glorifies them and plays into their desire for publicity, in my opinion. So much for my opinion!
That’s positive thinking when you talk about planting a garden ! Here too spring moved in from one day to the other and everything starts blooming ! Only it’s still unusually cold !
Yes, Spring is so lovely and the trees here are starting to come out as well as all the flowering trees and flowers. Love YOU, Mel
so glad you’re getting your garden started!!!
