Yay for rain instead of snow or ice. We got 1-1/2 inches of rain night before last, which was good..we needed it.

I'd rather be home to Sunny but being alone too much makes a person crazy especially when it's too cold or rainy to go outside.

That frog is exactly right. smile

Bestofour, I would never leave my house if I could...if they had food delivery here, it might work. lol

Junie, I found this pic and I know you love frogs, so....

Raining and cold here the next 2 days. It's hard staying in this house by myself so many days in a row.

I have no idea of the planting date where I live at now. Back home we planted them March 17...well when it was warm enough...but there I had even planted in early May and they made.

I guess I will plant here as soon as I find some seed potatoes.

Sheri, I too love to plant potatoes. Here I just end up with 10 pounds or so, but they do taste good, so I am happy to do it.

Sunny, yes, comp!ain away ! I too am tired of winter. And if I lived where you do, I would be tired if it the day it first came in.

Good morning !

Bestofour, Can I come live with you? lol

I have to go shovel the roof on the house and shed in a few minutes. Am I allowed to complain about how I am so sick of Winter? haha

I covered a few things for the freezing weather the other night and so far so good. Junie, I'm sorry about your magnolias because they smell so good. I love using the big leaves in decorations. If you spray paint them they stay fresh looking for months. I use them a lot.

I love planting and digging up potatoes but I'm not planting any this year or maybe ever. I just don't eat enough of them to make it worth my while. I can buy them at the farmers market.

I have got my squash bales ready and squash seeds planted in cups in the little green house, and I've got the cucumber bed turned over and seeds also planted in the green house. Still need to clean out the raised beds for tomatoes and okra. That's all I'll plant.

I'd planned to work outside this afternoon but it's cold and windy so not gonna do it.

I don't know about that, Sunny.
We moved further south, and that is not all it is cracked up to be. We don't have so much of the snow and such here, but when there is bad weather it it is usually accompanied by ice. I could do without that.

Good morning.

Sad but true. You need to tell mother nature that she has it backwards. But here we have occasionally had snow in April and very occasionally one in May. Thank fully that is not the norm though.

Mailing off my Easter to the east coast today.

I hope you and your granddaughter had a fun day Junie.

Well, a foot of snow has fallen again with another 12 to 18 inches to fall on Saturday. I guess Mother Nature decided to just wait until Spring to send us the Winter snow that missed us. In like a lamb out like a lion instead. lol

Monitoring water usage can be a breeze with the right tech. I've had my own challenges with water-related issues, like when water damage wreaked havoc on half of my house.

Today is a do nothing and care of my Granddaughter kind of day. She is home from school which is only a half day. Hopefully I can find some smaller projects to do today that won't interfere with here being here.

I hope they are wrong about the forecast, Sunny. Here, our weather is supposed to continue to go up and down. SMH..

Sorry about the magnolia, I forgot that they bloom before leafing.

It is snowing out but is a milder day so it won't be so bad. Mind you, they are calling for a major storm for the weekend.

The magnolia tree is all brown now, so no more pretty flowers. But it will soon be putting out leaves, it will then once again look nice. Nothing else was harmed. We are hoping those freezes are done for the year. We do not get fresh peaches in the area some years because of that. It happens to apples as well but that bothers me less. I can always buy apples at the store.

Today is fixing up Easter gifts to mail. I was going to work outside but there will be warmer days for that.

We get freezes like that every few years, at times when the apple/cherry trees are in bud. It is a loss of fresh produce for the year.

We are getting a clearer day today, it is time I get out to pay bills.

The Magnolia not only was in bud, they were mostly bloomed out. The winds a few nights ago got rid of a lot if them, I imagine the freeze didn't help. (I have not looked out yet)

I had 3 daffodils blooming last night. I picked them, I figured that would make my Cora
happy tonight.

Below freezing here this morning.

The daffodils will be fine, ours get covered in snow even in bloom, they are as tough as dandelions. Not sure about the magnolia blooms though, was it in bud?
