Am I Done Yet?

NO!!! I listened to all advice, which was wonderful, and went outside to work. Who knows how many pretty days we have left before the winter completely closes us in.

The early temps were below freezing but it progressed to 39 degrees with a brisk ever changing wind. It was too windy to burn much but the Burn sisters had a fire going! Dressed in multi-layers, we worked.

Marcy took pictures as we prepared her spring flower bed. Every place we get cleared, I swear that oldest sister of mine wants to plant something! Last weeks clearing with help of the tractor is going to be for watermelons and cantaloupe, God love her!

Laughing Orca, please note the three sizes too big flannel pjs and the shoes!

Beverly and I worked our behinds off. She didn't have any behind to spare. I, on the other hand, did not miss any of mine!

We raked, we clipped, we dragged, we dug, we planted, we talked, we shared and worked. (I think she has forgiven me for the toilet thing). Now Marcy had told us she has one hundred twenty MORE spring bulbs.

I said all that to say this: No house work finished! I have been like a little male dog, a little here, a little there... I did get some laundry done, some dishes done (both of those grow, when you are not looking!) I could have some wonderful before pictures but have no after pictures yet!

Andrew and I did get the Christmas tree up and decorated after dark. I think we will put one live one in the dining room but that is a job for another day.
