Day of Rest?

The plants are out of their tiny plastic pots! Most of them are now in bigger plastic pots! Some are in the ground. A few are in a terra cotta pot decorated with bas-relief fishes. A couple are in a plastic pot that is resting in a metal pink flamingo. Begonias, impatiens, petunias, allysum, ferns, ivy, spikes, New Guinea impatiens, geraniums, dianthus, and an ornamental grass I'd never seen before called fiber optic. I am filthy and sweaty and feel an enormous sense of accomplishment. Even though I still need to spend at least as many hours in the yard as I did today to clean up flower beds and weed the perennials. Yes, it is the spring flurry of yard work that will ease into an easy routine of watering and weeding. Watering and less weeding. Watering. Winter. Does anyone care what the iPod list was while I was working? Of course you do! That's why you're here!

No, I do have A Few Small Repairs by her. Cover Girl must be newer?
