I am going to make sure our recycling gets to the curb! Unfortunately, I can't put a garden in up here because we are moving this summer and even if not- it is still freezing most every night.
I will have to plant trees and do other things to help the earth this summer to make up for it!

After work, I'm heading to the nursery to get some more manure and then home to plant my other clematis and maybe the daylillies that lovely Janice brought me on Sunday. Don't know, our weather is still "iffy" but I do have lots of sheets in the rag bag to cover them with (Mary Jane's influence is boundless)...

Working in my flower gardens and cleaning up more around the yard. Then, I will take a walk through the our forest and just appreciate all the beautiful wildflowers and spring changes.

I really have been analyzing my own footprint around the house. I have come up with a list that I would like to work on for the next year to "green" my life. A few things...
1. Replace lightbulbs with CFL. 2. Buy 3 more large totes for shopping 3. Changing over metal drinking bottles. I carry mine all the time. 4. Researching an environmental cause for children. 5. Compost 6. Water buckets outside 7. More local/vegetarian cooking 8. Researching solar/wind/gardening/blue jeans isulation options for when we get out beach house.
And a few other things... : )
Cheers, Heather

I'm planting a forsythia bush, turning my compost piles, picked up trash on my dog walk this morning, enjoying the sun~!

Since we still were having snow flurries as of yesterday, we are a bit limited. I did manage to spread some bark shavings over by the fire hydrant today, but most everything else needs to wait. I brought my poor little pony packs inside as they were getting frost bit. Sooooo anxious for warm weather to last for more than a minute!
Hugs & blessings,
Brenda

Oh! Picking up trash on a walk is a wonderful idea! I have a friend coming over today so I need to clean clean clean (with vinegar and water of course! No chemical nasties here!) But since I will have all my chores done for the week- tomorrow I will go pick up trash and make it my goal to have a nicely tidy block! Thanks for the ideas!

Planting flowers, cleaning up and committing to buy organic, local food items as much as we possibly can.
