Sorry to be so late in posting for ABC Wednesday but there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the days lately. I have several new students that I tutor and by the time I teach all of them for an hour each and fill in my information sheets for what we did, I've already put in 150% time for each and every one.
However, while I've been doing my work, my sweetie has discovered my garden and has been having a blast figuring out how to improve it. Spring has not yet sprung here, and we hear there might even be another blast of snow on the weekend. But that hasn't stopped my sweetie as he's already raked up the garden and the lawn and put all the garbage in bags. And he's started to spread bark mulch in some areas. There is a lot to do still, but he's in his glory! Here are a few photos of my garden - before the work began. Hopefully, I'll be able to show you the after shots in a few months.
The side garden, all raked and ready to have the bark mulch put down.
My weeping birch looks a very strange greyish colour right now.
The back garden along the fence is looking pretty scraggy right now.
This is right beside the patio and shows the part along the back of the house.
Finally, the front is looking pretty sparce except for the brilliant purple heather.

What perfect timing to have rediscovered L. He is indeed a Sweetie for working in your garden.
The heather looks so pretty against your front wall.
Great to learn you're back into the swing of tutoring, it seems very rewarding.

I can't wait until I get to play in the dirt again.
Coffee is on.
He did great job, i'm sure. You have a beautiful garden. I want to see it full of flowers and colours.
In my blog there is an award waiting for you. You really deserve it. Congratulations.
Had a lovely time visiting your garden. I loved the way the light shone through the lattice work on the top of the fence and made shadows on the ground.
Isn't it good that Spring is on its way?
Oh yes, the joy of the early spring pottering in the garden. I was all sorted to have a go yesterdy but in the space of an hour the temp had dropped. Roll on Easter hols, my nephew is coming round for a few days he loves working in the garden!
