Eleven flats, 320 lbs of topsoil and compost, five bushes, two lily plants
And one mowed lawn later, I think I am finished in the garden for the weekend.

Now on to laundry which, in some ways, seems harder.

1. Slacker.
:P

I need to do laundry therefore I'm going outside to garden. I have one bed of vegetables left to transplant and a new herb box to fill with soil and amendments before planting, but that will be it until the fall. We've already put in most of the summer garden over the last few weeks.

2. That was only in front
My backyard is in an even worse mess. That will be the weekday evening project....

I love working outside...but it's never finished.

3. Eleven flats? A-double-flat major or f-flat minor?

4. We mowed the lawn...
...planted five Blushing Bride hydrangeas and a Miss Canada lilac, put in cilantro, basil, and sage. Moved some moss rose and zinnia seedlings. Mulched the Russian sage. Pruned the apple trees. Still have tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant to put as well as a few perennials. Oh, and the back of my car is still full of cocoa mulch.
