Maryann, Where will you move to? Refresh our memories?

I dug for a couple of hours this evening and finished turning over and weeding the part of the garden that I had hoped to finish last year, but didn't get to then. It's about 5' x 8' in size. There was a pile of mulch there last year I had been pulling from for the rest of the garden, and today I pulled tons of Bermuda grass rhizomes out of what was left it. It's all turned into the soil now. I'll see if I can get one more plank to extend the back edge of this garden, and I need more bags of top soil and humate to build my raised beds. I will be more careful about how close I plant everything this year, particularly the tomatoes. Last year (and most years) they end up a hedge, hard to work around or weed.

This evening I've taken ibuprofen, I'm sure my backside will feel all of that digging and I'll be stiff in the morning. I took a wheelbarrow full plus one of those bags of lawn clippings to the compost this evening and emptied the bag then dropped my weeds on top.

Didn't do much in the house, but I'll pick up a little before heading to bed.
