OSH hardware. Got the necessary soil and fertilizer. Got then in the ground, didn't wilt, so I think they will be fine!! Yea, got them in before the next rain that is expected first of next week!! Very happy about that!! I guess the urge to plant never goes away, it is in the blood. I had to dig up some of my Dahlia bulbs/tubers for that spot, so now have to find them another place~~~~~~stay tuned. Antique Rose

Gardening
After my morning walk at the lake, and volunteering at the senior center, I cam home with the hopes of doing some gardening. I began, I had ninety daffodil bulbs to plant!!! I wasn't sure if I could get them all planted in one day, but I surely was going to try!!! The soil was hard, I first turned it over with a shovel, then raked, then dug with a trowel. I then began my planting. The first thirty were not bad, then on to the second thirty, it got a bit harder, my hands were beginning to feel rather stiff, but I carried on. The last thirty was the hardest, but I was successful in my endeavor !!!!!!!! Oh, yes, forgot that I had some "naked ladies" to plant also. A friend at the senior center had dug up some for me, from his yard, and they needed to be planted right away, so I also planted those. Doing yard work is like therapy for me, and I enjoy it, even if I do get sore and stiff from doing so!! I feel I have accomplished something, and I know that in the spring I will reap the rewards with lots of wonderful yellow and pink blossoms from my hard work!!! Stay tuned for pictures in the spring. :-) Another thing I like, taking pictures of my flowers as they come into season and bloom. I feel now that I am ready for the fall/winter season in the garden department. Weeds will have to be pulled and some more trimming on the plants that are now winding down, but I have a handle on things, and it won't take long to do those things. Until next time. Antique Rose
