Okay, the fact that it is the beginning of FEBRUARY, and it is 73 DEGREES is starting to bother me. For one thing, all the plants are thinking "Yippee! It's spring!" and are starting to bud out and such, which means the time is perfect now for some horrible cold snap to come through and do some serious damage. For another thing, it's just the principle. It should not be this warm in February. I should not be putting away the heavy coat until March.

Mama Nature, lay off the gin. Your drinking problem is getting out of hand, and if you don't shape up and stop being drunk while doing your weather duties, we're all going to have to get together and stage an intervention.

In other news, we got a gardening catalog in the mail that is positively awesome. The sucker is THICK, and has got tons and tons of really lovely plants, including things that I have never seen in a gardening catalog before, including honeysuckle and blueberries. I could not. Stop. Drooling. The only drawback though is that a fair amount of their things were rather pricey, which made me sad because I want something like one of everything. I guess if nothing else, we could use it as a resource for the sorts of things out there, then go searching to see if we can find them cheaper someplace else. Some of the plants don't look too expensive tho, so they might be feasable for one or two unusual plants we can't get elsewhere. Oh, and they do have a website: waysidegardens.com In case anyone's interested. <3 <3
