We spent hours yesterday pulling dandelions, raking out gardens, watering our sugar snap peas, planting some new perennials (I planted a knock out rose, yarrow, sage, lupine and asters) and spraying the whole yard with liquid weed and feed. Still need to mulch, but I have to wait until next weekend after I plant my zinna seeds.
Our tulips are in full bloom and so is our lilacs and I brought a big bouquet of lilacs and grape hyancith inside so we could enjoy the scent.
Did a very challenging 45 minute walk this morning after I read the Sunday paper. I'm trying to do more jog/walk intervals so that the intensity of the workout is there.

Budget Diet Report: I'm happy to report that just keeping a better eye on our money this month netted us an extra $350.00 this month. I think we're going to give it another go this month although we already know we have an extra expense of purchasing our annual Aquatic Center family pass and that's $125 bucks but worth every penny.
Have a good week.....oh and I'm putting together my photos and story from my US Capitol tour. I'll get it posted sometime this week.

The weather WAS beautiful! Our lilacs bloom much later than yours. I always look forward to that time.
Great job on the budget! That is amazing!
OK, you've impressed me. I can't wait to crop with you again so I can pick up some of your hints. Goodness knows, my budget could use a diet!
