It's always *something*....

it warmed up today (after being well below freezing this morning - 24F at 0630), so I was going to go pull weeds. But it's been so long since it rained that the ground is holding on to the weeds, especially in the E bed that needs weeding the most. So I trimmed off the hyacinths there, then moved up to the NE bed where the soil doesn't hardpack when it dries out, and pulled weeds there. I don't think the lavender made it through the winter, which will leave an empty spot in the center front of that bed -- I'll probably fill it with another geranium, or maybe some other mounding perennial. Then I went and trimmed off the spent daffs in the NW bed.

Newsletter layout is done. There will be another one next week.

The basement has warmed up, so it's not so uncomfortable to work down there. Now if I can just keep the cats from 'helping'....
