I am ready

 I am so ready for spring. More than I have been, I think in a very long time.

 I want to see my pink yarrow and the bumbly bees that love it.

 I want to decorate my yard and gardens.

 To sniff the herbs.

To cut bouquets. 

Sigh, I want to pull weeds even. Cause I love to pull weeds when I feel good. Sometimes even when I feel rotten. It is theraputic to me. But everything has a season I know. We have had so much more snow this season than in many years. That will be good for our soil. And the spring rains will be also. Patience. Patience. But I have a bad case of the I wants. :o)

I am blessed. ~Angela

Indiana needs rain!

 My poor gardens need rain. Even the cone flowers are droopy.

 George is guarding the taters from the neighbors kittens! Forget the crows.

 My empty rain gauge. You can see a couple of 'maters coming on there. I have a town dwellers garden consisting of 3, 4' x 8' raised beds. And peppers in a wheelbarrow and a bathtub! Yellow squash are growing in the flower garden. Making it work. And watering every other day now. I had been doing it every 4 days, but these hot temps were taking their toll on the veggies. The flowers only get watered once a week. I feel guilty, but the water bill will remind me why. :o( I know Indiana is only one of many states in severe drought conditions. Praying for us all.

I am blessed. ~Angela
