It has been a while since my last update. Thankfully, I have been busy enjoying this beautiful weather and playing in the dirt. Some major changes have come about since the last report, some good, some bad. You know how is goes sometimes.

I got sick for a few days.....and, everything in my greenhouse decided to start growing like mad!
My brugs have all started to put on beautiful new leaves....
Most of my seedlings have started to sprout....including some I planted just last week.
I  went out today to someone else's greenhouse, because my stuff hadn't grown that much the last time I saw it! lol
Most if not all of my bulbs have broken ground.....and to suprise me for feeling a little better today.....I opened the doors to tons of amarylis blooms!

So yesterday I realized I have a need for a whole new project to protect my square foot garden from my dog.
Yes, my dog likes to dig in the boxes...walk in the boxes...roll around in the boxes.
She's not on my list of awesome things right now!
She about killed over half of my cabbage and brocolli digging....shes walked on and killed a good amount of my lettuce.
I'm really frustrated right now!

I tried really hard to be lazy and not get into the newer stuff coming up but I have been trying harder to keep a log of this year's gardening exploits, if not only for myself. So I dug up a pencil and grabbed one of those credit card offer envelopes and headed out to the greenhouse. Junk mail envelopes make great notepads, by the way. They make even better mulch and packing material once they are shredded.
 

We have been staring at this plan for nearly three years now and have finally gathered the ambition to get started. A few things have changed since we decided on this plan, like the front yard layout and the rectangular shrub fence but this is pretty much it.
