Planning & Prep

Today I was doing some planning and prep. on paper. It helps to have an idea of what some of my goals are and just to have it written down and out of my head. Seeds and plants to put in later. It is too cold to plant yet here outside because if it going to be freezing tonight.

I got quite a bit done yesterday I was happy with that. Getting the living room vacuumed before the day was done. Pruning the dwarf plum tree. Cleaning in the carport some. Decluttering a box. Cleaning out a laundry basket for a back yard game with a frisbee. I did not have a frisbee but some pie tins for that.

A friend brought by a basket of flowers with roots, and sympathy card last evening that was a delight. We kept our distance but had a quick chat.

I have other baskets I am getting ready to use this spring. Like the one for seed packets I need to do up from the seeds I saved last summer. I found them in the pantry yesterday I have been hunting for them.

I have a plant and seed wish list now after looking at plant catalogs. That was fun. It is too cold to plant now we have freezing temps in our forecast tonight.

At the store yesterday I was the only customer when I went early, and noticed they had a one doz. per customer limit on eggs. Quite a change from years in the past. I found mocha pie, no cheese cake or chocolate pie but these will work. Soup was available but not a lot on the shelves.

Neighborhoods were going to show support for seniors and spring sports that were cancelled with Friday night light car parades in our area gave people something to look forward to this week.   

Yesterday I got the dwarf plum tree topmost branches pruned, some of those had some blooms and I was able to put them in a container to enjoy the blooms this weekend.

Last evening at dusk I was able to go outside and enjoy the orange glow of the sunset by the fire pit I made last summer it was very peaceful and relaxing.
