gardens 2010

Well I've spent the day - or at least most of it - going through all the kids things. I can't believe the number of things they accumulate! We didn't get it done sooooooo.........my living room is full of crap! But there's always tomorrow to finish it all.

I also have realized that I've waited too long to get things bought for the garden! Even though it's supposed to snow this weekend things still need planted. OH I FORGOT TO TELL YOU!!

I went and ask the landlord about the little blue house's side yard. Guess what he said?? Sure! Actually he said that'd be fine but if I wanted a larger out of the way area then right around the corner would be better. REALLY!! All he asks for in return are some tomatoes & cucumbers! That's it!

And let me tell you this spot he said would be better IS better! It's about 150' x 150' and completely out of the way from the school bus drop off. I have so many options with this piece of land! I'm so excited! From here on out it will be called the alley garden for the alley that runs right beside it.

So what we have is the alley garden, the garden out at SR's house, and the pot garden here at the house. Overall I think we'll be pretty good to go =)
