Organizing - Veggie Garden

Okay, so since I have been sick and really very unproductive.  My wonderful veggies have been doing what they are supposed to... GROWING.  So I have two of the three steps done and I thought I would share them with you.  I planted my seeds the last weekend of February and they are all sprouting now. 




Yesterday, Jack and I put my planter together and it is ready for the dirt and plants.  I still need to go and get my strawberry plants and maybe a few herbs, but I'll do that this weekend.



So here are my plants and planters.  I am going to try my hand at growing the following things here in North Carolina this summer.  Bell Peppers, Squash, Zucchini, Broccoli, Kale, Onions, Carrots, Potatoes, Strawberries, and maybe a few herbs. 

This is all I could get organized this week.  Maybe I can get back on track next week and get another box or two out of the attic to sort.  Wouldn't that be great. 

Have a great day and have fun organizing.

A Stay At Home Mom Never Gets a Day Off

So for the last two weeks, either Jack or I have been sick.  There has been no time for blogging or getting any kind of house work done.  But I have found a few minutes while my little guy naps to get some writing done.  For those of you that are moms you know this well.... We never get a day off.  If we are sick, we still have to take care of the kids.  This makes it really hard to get the rest we need to feel better.  Oh the life of a stay at home mom.  Wouldn't it be nice to never get sick.

This weekend should be beautiful weather and I hope to get my planter set up and my veggies planted.  I would also love to get my flower bed weeded and ready for the summer.  But this all hinges on the fact that I feel better.  Having a head cold really sucks.  Just getting dinner made it a chore all in it's self and I love to cook. 

I hope to get some kind of organizing done this weekend and get all of this clean laundry folded and put away.  I love that it's clean, but having it sit in baskets it driving me crazy.  I also need to find something for the recycling bin since Jack wants to chew on the cardboard box I am using now.  Yuck.

Have a great weekend everyone and Happy St. Patrick's Day.
