Finally got it done


I took the morning off so I'd have a whole day to work in my yard. I ran a few errands early and then got to work. First I planted some stray blackberry sprouts along a bare area of pasture fence that has no electric on it so they they can vine around the wires. Then I cleared out the area along the front of the barn and planted my Lily of the Valley plants. Hopefully they will grow and I can finally get something worthwhile in that spot. Then I cleared out and mulched around the raspberry bushes. I planted some pansies in the wishing well and did a little general weeding and sprayed some areas with week killer. Then I mowed the back yard. Doesn't seem like it should have taken all day. But it did. No time left for messing with the horses or dogs which was something I was hoping to do. Still got some laundry to do and then we are meeting some friends for dinner!

Busy day!! Doesn't it make you feel good to get so much stuff done that you have been wanting to do? Hope you dinner was a nice reward!
