Yesterday,one of my sisters told me about Wal Mart selling yellow lilac bushes and I had to go there first thing this morning and get me one! Its just a tiny bush as lilacs go but that way more things will fit in my yard :) I will put a stake by it so I make sure I don't forget what is growing there. It will probably take me 3 years of so before I get any blossoms but think how happy I will be when it does grow nice and blossom for me. The Nikko Blue Hydrangea's are a nice size to start with too. The price was right at $4.88 each and they are nice and healthy. I put them all in pots I have and watered them etc and put them on the porch. I will take them into the garage every night and sometime probably the end of April I will plant them.
I also puttered aroung the yard a little and cleaned up around the day lilies... they are starting to come up now too. so wonderful to see the green peeking through the earth again. Of coarse this is only close to the house and in the sun that I'm really picking and cleaning up a very little... It will still get cold I think so I will be careful.
This was on my calendar today and I thought I would share it:
"The way to happiness--- keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry, live simply, expect little, give much."
