Spring is crazy!

Spring is crazy! Our schedule anyway.  The weather too as far as that goes.  Looking at my calendar I can see we have days where we are double booked.  Not sure how that is going to work.  Actually I am - we aren't going to be able to do some things.  My mom is coming today and will stay at least through Tin's 5th Birthday next week.  Same day as the Shakespeare performance.  Tomorrow is particularly bad - not looking like a relaxing birthday for me, but its also a day I get to see friends, and that is always a plus.  Hopefully with my mom here she will pick up some of the driving duties and I can get more done simply because I'm not being interrupted so much.

The garden is coming along.  Always much to do, weeding, planting, new beds.  I'm very happy with the seedlings this year.  Tomatoes are looking great.  A few more weeks before they are going out.  Everyone helped clean up beds so they will be ready for the tomatoes, peppers, squash and the 3rd planting of carrots & greens. I am very thankful that we did not experience the freezing that other parts of Wisconsin got this past week.

Our hayfield is just about ready to be cut.  The early warm weather and the recent rain has most of the alfalfa at just above my knee.  With this next week of rain it should be ready to cut next week.  The early forecast even looks like the skies will cooperate with us too.  Our schedule not so much.

Grandma Jean is recovering well.  We are very grateful for that.  In no time at all she'll be back in her garden.
