    I don’t usually have time to do stuff but I am really longing for some color in my yard so I think I’ll see about getting some nice pots of color.

    I found some decent sites I thought I’d share. Please feel free to add.

    What about you all? Do we have avid gardeners out there? Patio gardeners, bonsai growers, master gardeners?

    Any suggestions for people like me who have the love of the outdoors but neither the time nor the talent for gardening? lol.

    Happy Spring y’all!

    Spring will come. Promise.

    I like to get ideas & plan ahead.... Then, a bunch of other things come up and I never get a chance to do all the things I plan but I like to think about doing them someday. lol.

    Just kidding - if Eric & I ever buy a house, I am SO going to have a garden with tomatos, green beans, and corn! Maybe some other stuff, too - dunno.

    I was just so excited to see "First Day of Spring" on the calendar. I so want it to be spring. :)
    I hope everyone gets beautiful sunshiney days real soon and then maybe someone will show off pictures of their garden here.
