It sounds like you really love gardening and l loved hearing your planting plans for when the weather warms up enough.<br />How fantastic to move 10 bags of garbage from the shed....and can see how that will make such a big difference to the space. My hubby's shed is sacred ground (to him) and throwing ANYTHING out is considered a mortal sin...SIGH!!!l also had to smile at your lawn seed story...just in that it's so typical that it would bucket down raining after all your planning and work...l have my fingers crossed for you that it'll all come together in the end...hope your weekend is beautiful.vintageandarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06675311203154161920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-1183597131673671102016-04-30T16:48:50.631-05:002016-04-30T16:48:50.631-05:00Little Elsie is a doll Jane...so glad you've b...Little Elsie is a doll Jane...so glad you've been able to get some snuggle time with her.<br />Can you lend me a husband to clean out my shed?

We built a scarecrow together. You should try that, it was so much fun. I miss those days and now the days are more 'grown-up' which are fun too, but I never forget when he was little.

We have a lot in common including just cleaning out years worth of stuff from when our kids were growing up, including my daughter's old bike, from our shed (*sniffles*)and I have the same white flowers! (no clue what the name is either but we divided them and planted them all around our pond and they look gorgeous!). So yes, you can split them. We did. Just wanted to share and say hi! :)<br /><br />xo Michelle DelleneMichelle Dellenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10652326384240702518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-80600145793504808122016-04-26T11:01:44.928-05:002016-04-26T11:01:44.928-05:00Hi Jane!

Elsie is so adorable, I get all soft inside when I think about pushing a baby stroller again, especially with a little girl inside. Maybe some day the Lord will bless me with grand daughters haha I tell that to my boys and they say, no Mom I want all boys. Sigh.<br />So glad you got your shed cleaned out, I bet it feels good.

I turned over the soil today and did the same thing you did, except I was spreading Preen, I had to run to get back to the shop in the rain with multiple trips carrying all the tools. That part was fun. I love, love, love my job with the village but the first month is a killer.<br />Your Elsie is a dreamboat.

I just bought more plants at a garden center today and was hoping to get them potted this afternoon, but the storms rolled in just as I got home. Oh well, we still have plenty of time! So sweet to have a little one to show the flowers to and even take on a shopping trip to Target. When we were at our friend's house this weekend, his daughter stopped by with their little ones: a 4-year old boy and 1-1/2 year old girl. They were both so cute and the 4-year old talked to me non-stop...about Legos, his fire truck, his birthday party, his tools, Star Wars, etc. I miss the wonder and innocence of little ones! Hope you have a wonderful week!Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659968511488397366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-3121614195355190502016-04-25T18:50:44.195-05:002016-04-25T18:50:44.195-05:00I can hardly tell who's prettier...you or Elsi...I can hardly tell who's prettier...you or Elsie. Well, *maybe* Elsie, but just by a teeny, tiny hair. Reading about your afternoon with her made me smile. It must be wonderful for you to have such a doll around, to show things to, teach, and see the world through her eyes. <br /><br />What happened with the lawn seeds is exactly what happened to me. I swear, Mother Nature is out to get me, but she's met her match with us both I think ;). <br /><br />I like that tip about the breadcrumbs. I can see why that would be a good thing to do. I'll have to try it. I know what you mean about the recipe photos. I once thought that food bloggers have it made. After all, they have an endless pool of posts, but it's not all that easy. <br /><br />It's great that you're using your camera, but remember...the most valuable tools you have are your eyes. <br /><br />xxxDoreen@foxdenrdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09418636999038800443noreply@blogger.com
