So far I've gotten seeds-

chives
watermelon
marigolds
...and played with dirt in the flower bed. Filled some containers. I'm soooo ready!

Last night a transplanted daffodils, I think, I'll see when they bloom!!
I planted some lilly of the valley bulbs and a mixed variety of Lillies, they were all givine to me about 20 of each.
I have seeds for veggies, lots of seeds but I havent even started them yet I have to pick a spot for my garden yet, I am debating a few spots and I think I am just going to do rows instead of a large square all turned over, rows will be much easier!!
I think this weekend I will start my seeds, in those little pods, they are great for starting seeds, used to use them in my Mj growing days :)
things are just staring to bloom here, my apple trees have tiny little buds and I have creeping murtle that is sprouting pretty purple flowers.
YAH for spring!!! I dont get much done in the house in the spring too much outside work that needs to be done!!

My husband and I spent all last weekend getting the yard cleaned up. Raking up leftover leaves from fall, trimming bushes, cutting back the ornamental grasses...it was a lot of work. But worth it because the yard looks great.
I started seeds for my garden. So far I have green beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, oregano, basil, and a bunch of different flowers. Also some seeds to start some lavendar, because I accidentally pulled my plant up when I was pulling the dead stuff off from last year. Oops. It may still come though, I suppose. My lavendar proved to be pretty hardy.
Yay for spring!!
