Flist? I just spent a ridiculous amount of money on 6 bottles of wine (AFTER a discount for buying 6 and AFTER a discount for using a debit card) and I ain't even sorry. Life's too short for shitty shoes or shitty wine. Buy the best you can. And with the way the Mr's business is growing, I did just that. :D

Speaking of, he's pretty much going to be gone for the month of April, so there will be much sleeping on the diagonal that month. I anticipate getting a LOT of rest. \o/

My children no longer need me. I mean, they DO because I'm the magic fairy who buys food and clothes and blah blah, but they are happily engaged in their own lives for the most part, and they rarely want my attention. *Unless it's for money, clothes, food, blah blah. I am surprisingly not sad about this. I am not one of those mothers who cannot imagine life without their wee ones. ALL I DO IS IMAGINE IT. Ahahahaha. I kid. Kind of. Those of you with teenagers/college age kids know JUST what I'm talking about.

HEY GUYS IT IS SUNNY AND WARM AND I HAVE THINGS POPPING UP IN MY GARDEN! It's making me happy. Oh! And I'm going to film little shorts on my new MacBook Pro for Mastering the Garden and put them on YouTube. I can't count on my local film crew, and I'm getting upset at seeing all the gardening mistakes popping up all over once again (ahaha). So if you have a question for me, post it in comments and I'll see if I can't make a video for you. :D

My youngest is 8. We went to a (family) birthday party for a 2 year old on Sunday.

There is no better cure for broodiness omg.

Enjoy your wine!!!

I NEED YOU. I NEED YOUR ATTENTION. I NEED YOUR EVERYTHING.

AND I LOVE YOU. AND YOUR WINE. AND YOUR GARDEN. AND YOUR EVERYTHING!

Yes. Yes I do. Oy.

As far as gardening goes, I need to know how to divide up the daylilies that are about to eat my house without killing them all.

Oh my gosh, as I sit here shivering in my bedroom because the wind is blowing so cold outside (we have another run at polar weather coming in this weekend) I am SOOOOOOOO jealous of your garden shoots! It looks like we might get crocuses by Easter if we're really, really lucky. This has been the longest, coldest, craziest winter I can remember. I won't even be able to put in any annuals this year (hubby is out of work so no $$), so instead of planning my planting, I'm just planning to mulch everything with woodchips we already own and watch the perennials that managed to survive the winter when they finally start to come up next month. Please post pictures of your lovely spring happenings to remind us up here in the tundra that life exists somewhere!!

Happy wine! I've been "self-medicating" lately and a glass of wine brings all the relaxings.

I'm really looking forward to the gardening shorts. I would like to know: How to choose the best potted seedlings and plantlets at the nursery?

Sing it, sister.

I am getting the gardening itch. It's time to start digging and planning and planting!! I have to start my vegetable garden all over again because I lost my plot to the new barn last year. I was very sad, because I just about had the soil the way I wanted it. But on to new things. Going to plant salad things and lots and lots of peas.
The plants in my patio planters are sprouting, the daffodils are about to bloom, and there is new growth on my roses. I love this time of year.

I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE VIDEOS. I DON'T CARE THAT OUR ZONES ARE SUPER DIFFERENT.

Just got a new MacBook and holy cow. Zippy.

Looking forward to the videos! I think of you whenever I see crepe myrtles, because I remember you talking about that being a *huge* gardening mistake.

Yay! Gardening! We finally have hostas popping up. And by popping up, I mean I saw the tips of them. hur hur.
