I've noticed a lot of pics lately and snow frolicking. Are the gardeners still out and about menacing their communities? It is almost time for another of the fun things about gardening, running into other gardeners in the plant section. I have had some fun conversations and I have been stalked for my buggy (plants selected) in the nursery. I always get a laugh.

I gaze out into the garden and promise myself that I will be dilligent in weeding this year. That is my New Years resolution every year. lol.
But I scour the gardening mags and order my new additions online. I love ordering online because they send my picks just when it's perfect to plant them. It's just like Christmas morning when I get a parcel from Vesey's.
Long walks with the dog on the beach when the weather is fit. Baking pies for my hon.
Working to make more money to buy more plants then I need. Planning what I will divide this year to gift to my neighbor.
 Dreaming

Aahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
To dream and Let Dreams.
That's how to discover yourself and enjoy life.
That would be nice to walk a lone beach.. I am just teasing you. Where I am , no creek at all.. Our daddy had one and I had to pass it daily.. I do miss the calmness of the tide..............YOu got it.
Gardens are best enjoyed .Weeds and all..LOL

I too like getting my orders in the mail and knowing that it is a good time to plant it in a just so right for it spot (I always hope). I have been walking in some new public parks noting the landscaping and planning to come back in the spring to see the scenary come alive.

today this gardener piled bunny poo into her composter, and gave it a good watering. Aah, the unlovely aspect of gardening, but it's the only thing that keeps my rocky garden growing!
Sketched out a few butterfly/bee/bloom ideas to paint too.
Now I'm watching my garden by filtered moonlight as it is slowly being covered in snow. Ta.

I love the paragraph you just wrote.........You use the words so nicely.........
And yes the garden needs some pooh............Back here they are called Smarty Pills???????/Beats me why?
My cow meadow is full of rocks and I know how you feel.......It isnt pleasant to walk on , but it does hold the soil when the flooding goes down our hill.
So we let them be..............
Mother nature knows best.

Smarty pills and rabbit pooh for compost bins. Learning anew vocabulary while not gardening may be the thing to do when there is no gardening to do.

pooh is a very respectable bear. poo is bearly respectable *ducking swiftly to avoid adminishing slaps*

I will never look at a raisan the same way again because take away the high gloss and the rabbit has some poo competition.
