I am looking forward to it, I must say. Just have to put in the work to make sure I don't eff it up first (and figure out how I can get the trees home). I plan on also buying some planters and stuff to put in them that I can work on today, since both OSH and Home Depot are having garden sales this weekend.

You've got to find an excuse to show off your pretty to the world!
Check your local listings to see if there's some event worthy of your presence. Something where you can stroll about: garden show, car show, lawn bowling, lawn darts, champagne brunch al fresco (with book), bocce tournament, antique show...

Citrus trees sound awesome! What'll go into the planter?

Good call, David. So far I've eaten lunch (out, but not exciting) and gone to Lowe's because reading here reminded me I needed to buy a reel mower, which I did. Now I'm internetting at B&N so I can find something more fun to do. Actually, assembling the mower will probably be fun, but it can wait.

I am in full-tilt spring cleaning mode today. Unfortunately I'm being so thorough I've only done about half of one room so far, but the master bedroom will soo be DUST FREE. My nose is displeased with this chore but I just keep reminding it how much better we'll sleep without all those dust bunnies behind the bed. And under the bed. And on the blinds. And on the ceiling fan blades. And on the books.

Yeah, I've got the spring cleaning bug too. I completely redid our media room/library, including moving furniture. The living room and dining room are straightened, but I'd not call it spring clean. And then I broke the mop, so I've got to replace that. Maybe I should go do that now.
No, I think paperwork sorting, deposit, breaking down cardboard, recycling sorting then buy mop. That way I can take the cardboard and recycling out when I go out to get the mop.

I mowed the lawn! And filled the bird feeders and birdbath and watered the pots and pulled a few weeds from amongst the Cosmos. I should still edge the lawn, maybe after lunch but probably later in the week, really. Now that I have come inside and sat down I don't really want to go out again.
