Is it Spring AGAIN???

I can't believe it's Spring again. Not only that but it's almost Summer and I just finished getting the last of the Christmas things put away..where do the days go when they fly by so quickly? I always think of those old movies that indicated the passing of time by showing a calendar with the months flying off and swept into a passing wind.

I will be celebrating a birthday soon and some days lately have been beginning to feel my age. I hate growing old but know that the alternative is worse by far. Maybe someday I will feel that I have lived long enough but believe me, that is in the distant future [I hope].

The gardens are weedy and overgrown, I just can't seem to keep up with so many so this year [as in the past]  I have vowed to cut back and I fully intend to do so this time. I have several flats of annuals waiting, 3 new Clematis, a Honeysuckle vine and a flat of perennials and a couple of dozen tomato plants waiting to go in as soon as I'm sure the danger of frost is over. The past couple of nights have still been cold enough for most of them to freeze so I'll hold back on the most tender until after June 6. The pansies I planted in April are doing better now and I still have more to plant.  My best gardening fun this year so far has been taking digital pictures of whatever I can find that looks interesting and making new albums.

Feel tired tonight so "Good night, Journal", 'til next time.
