Seeing projects completed is such a joy!! David’s expertise is more precious than gold!! Some projects are “too heavy” or “too technical” for this old lady. True story: I tried to repair the awning support but didn’t have enough hands. 😉  I couldn’t lay those 12”x12”x4” blocks because too heavy. 😦 Wimpy, wimpy, wimpy!!

Postscript, Thursday, March 24th, 2016: Tower Garden is finally in its designated place.

The Internet is awesome!! So easy to check for information!! Today I checked for details about Hummingbird migration. There have, apparently, been sightings in Eastern Texas. Time to prepare nectar and hang my feeders.

Yesterday, first day of Spring and I had to cover my delicate veggie plants!!

.

Mid-morning, went shopping for more planter soil and bird seed. ~~ Recent gift of Styrofoam “peanuts.”

My extra busy, extremely talented, handyman arrived about three-ten. I’m so grateful for his help!! I want the concrete pad at the southeast corner of my RV site for my Garden Tower. ~~ “We” worked until dark!! ~~ Then I covered my tender plants again.

.

The cost of that little patch of concrete will remain a secret. I’m eager to roll my Garden Tower into the sunshine of that corner of my site. A blessing (or a curse?); my yard is very shady.

*Silly Old Senior!!

On March 17th, I discovered a bloom on the Mosquito plant. I get so-o-o-o excited when plants start to bloom!! Especially, this plant because the first time in two years. Maybe I finally have it in the ideal location? I have two plants next to my rain barrels in an effort to deter (what else?) mosquitoes. (Before long, marigolds near rain barrels, too.) ~~ Read an earlier blog about my rain barrels. (Older picture [on the left] because new image would be unattractive due to clutter and sagging awning.)

March 19th: So pretty, so delicate.

.

April 10th: So pretty, so many.

Today, I planned to shop Lowe’s, and the grocery store. Instead, I turned on the heater and decided I’d stay home (and work on indoor projects). This past week, the nights were so pleasant, I had the door open all night. Conflicting weather reports: I’ve heard “in the forties” tonight but a neighbor said “thirty-two.” I’ll be watching the TV news and may have to cover a lot of plants!!

Changing the subject: Because I’m the “P.P.” (plant person), a friend stopped by at 10:30 with a bedraggled Christmas Cactus (needs TLC) and Styrofoam “peanuts” (for the bottom of planters). I’ve been blessed with hundreds of plastic prescription and  supplement containers (“pebbles for planters“) and appreciate friends, and neighbors, contribution to my gardening projects!! Frequently, I’m asked “Do you still need containers?” and I answer “yes.”

Checking the Internet for information.

Saint Patrick’s Day information.

The camera was neglected most of the day. These were “after thoughts.” A much cooler day than previous several days–but still very nice. I planted seeds–and pulled weeds. My wonderful, helpful handyman, David, worked on a few of my projects after he completed a job for CARE. Weather permitting, David will be back tomorrow.
