That's what the weather is doing now. It's calling my bluff and daring me to follow through with my plan. I need to empty out the greenhouse, and this is probably the time to start. We're supposed to have sunny, warm days all week, with highs around 80F toward Friday.
Here's the greenhouse mess after everything that has kept me from tackling the job for the past year. Last summer and fall I had two cataract surgeries and was told by doctors and nurses to refrain from doing any gardening or other dusty, dirty work. Over winter, and until now, we've had too many cold mornings for me to feel comfortable putting delicate plants outside. Not only did we have way too much rain and too many freezing mornings, but I had a cold that lasted from late January until mid-March. I have finally run out of excuses...
Getting something done always lifts my mood. So glad your cold is gone.
ReplyDeleteI have a plan for where to put the plants I need to take out of the greenhouse. More later...
DeleteThink of the pleasure your plants will get in being out in nature and feeling the sun and breeze on their leaves! And the joy you'll get of ticking something off your to do list.
ReplyDeleteThose weren't excuses before - those were Dr.'s orders. You were doing the right thing to follow their directions and stay out of dusty, dirty situations to protect your eyesight. (Nice - did you have to pay him for that advice? (heehee) Maybe I will look forward to cataract surgery whenever that time comes?!.
ReplyDeleteActually, French Social Security, with aid from our complementary insurance policy, paid the doctors and nurses who told me to avoid dust and dirt, so no gardening.
DeleteKen - that was supposed to be joke. I was suggesting to get out of cleaning the green house - you asked and paid the dr. to give you those orders!
