Mary -- brrrrrrrr!!

After a rainy, windy night, we had a pretty decent day, with temps again in the mid 40s; right now we're still at 42, and tomorrow looks like more of the same except with more sunshine. I think I'm finally done working in the veggie garden... I moved my potted blueberry plants into the hoop house for the winter, and filled 5 buckets with finished compost and put them in the hoop house as well, to use early in the spring. Then I turned over the newer part of the compost pile and tidied it up, and put all the shovels, rakes and hoes away in the storage shed. Anything else that I get the opportunity to do outside will involve cleaning up the perennial flower bed (which has been pretty neglected this year Rolling my eyes. ).

The seed catalogs are really rolling in now; I was looking at tomatoes in one yesterday and DH asked if I had a pretty good idea of what tomatoes I'm growing next year -- I said "yep, and I probably already have all the seeds I need for them but that isn't going to stop me from getting more!" Hilarious!
